I believe the instructions on the lable says 1 part Perm per 100 parts water for dogs. ?
I have been mixing it in a squirt bottle and wet the dog with it as the instructions say. In heavy tick season ( may/june) , I usually do every 2 weeks , then as ticks thin out ( july/august) I cut it back to about once a month.
Always keep it out of the dogs face , eyes and mouth and avoid misting the air they breath.
I've had better luck with the Perm than I had with the BAYER because permithrin kills both ticks and fleas. The Bayer only worked on fleas for me and thinned ticks but didn't rid them..
I've been using perm for 2 years and thats my experiance with it. I've had NO side effects , but the dogs will roll around in the grass for a minute or two after its applied.
I've heard people say not to use Perm on dogs , but it is labled for dogs... Bayer Tree and shrub is not labled for dogs by the way.
I've heard of Premithrin being used as described above , by putting it down their backs with a few CC's , but I havn't tried it that way.... It might work though because Perm is in Advantix brand drops that are applied that way.

. In a hand-held bottle thats about a cap full. A little goes a long way... Check your math. lol My bottle is an empty Adam's flea spray bottle.
