The only tick Stronghold claims to work against is Dermacentor variabilis, the American Dog Tick. The label warns that in heavy tick infestations, complete tick efficacy may not be achieved after the first dose,so an additional dose may be given two weeks later, with monthly dosing continuing after that. That's why we recommend a stronger product like Advantix or Bravecto for extensive tick prevention.
