Success Stories
“CAPSTAR® (nitenpyram) has definitely worked for our facility. The majority of the dogs and cats that come in don’t have fleas, but we still give CAPSTAR to all of our guests just to make sure. It would be very costly to get an outbreak under control, and that’s why we use CAPSTAR.”
Jessica Brush, President and Kennel Manager
WoodRUFF Road Kennel, Simpsonville, SC
“We originally groomed dogs inside an animal hospital that required us to administer CAPSTAR to all dogs entering the facility. When we broke off and started our own grooming, boarding and daycare facility, we kept with the requirement so we could maintain a flea-free environment. CAPSTAR is great because it only lasts 24 hours, there are no side effects and it works quickly. To see CAPSTAR work on a dog with fleas is amazing. Fleas start to fall off the dog in minutes.”
Jennifer Keiser, Facility Manager
Rae-Zor Grooming, Boarding and Daycare, Sanford, North Carolina
“Every dog and cat that checks in gets a CAPSTAR pill to keep our resort flea-free. Even though we sanitized our kennels every day, we still occasionally had flea problems. Since we started using CAPSTAR about a year ago, we haven’t had any fleas.”
Vicki Cooper, Owner
Circle Star Pet Resort, Murchison, Texas
“Fleas are a big problem year-round, and we don’t want owners taking their pets home with the perception that they got fleas by visiting our facility. We actually give CAPSTAR to every patient upon admission to the hospital, even if they are only staying for the day. I haven’t had one complaint about fleas since we started using CAPSTAR.”
Amy Kennedy, Assistant Manager
Metairie Small Animal Hospital, Metairie, Louisiana
”In order for us to work in a facility where we don’t have to worry about flea infestations, we know that we need to be proactive. We put a protocol in place so every pet that comes into our facility gets a CAPSTAR, whether it’s for boarding, grooming or any veterinary services. This policy also protects our facility from clients thinking that their pets picked up fleas here. The clients appreciate our efforts to remain a flea-free facility. CAPSTAR is a win-win situation for everybody.”
Dr. Chris Rehm, Owner
Rehm Animal Clinic, Mobile, Alabama
“We’ve used CAPSTAR on all the dogs and cats coming into the pet hotel since day one. The fact that the product can be given to pets without interfering with other flea products is great. Sometimes clients have brought cats or dogs in and say that their pets itch a lot because they’re dirty and not because they have fleas. But, I give those pets a CAPSTAR and two hours later there are hundreds of dead fleas on the floor.”
