Is there a shampoo that can be used with a flea topical such as Advantix that won't wash the topical off? I know staying away from detergents like Dawn or anything that can strip them of their oils. Thanks!

According to the manufacturer..... Please wait 48 hours between product application and bathing. A non-medicated shampoo made for dogs is fine. Baths can be given as often as once per month without affecting the performance of the product. If more than one bath is given, the product should be reapplied after the second bath. Flea shampoo, medicated shampoos, human shampoo and dish detergents are not appropriate choices when managing fleas with K9 Advantix® II and may affect the performance of the product.
