Buy Flea and Tick Shampoo for Dogs Online - Safe, Effective Parasite Control at Bath Time
If you've spotted ticks on your dog, noticed them scratching more than usual, or seen tiny dark specks in their coat, bath time is often the fastest first response available. Flea and tick shampoo for dogs won't replace monthly spot-on treatments as a long-term prevention strategy - but as an immediate, surface-level solution that kills or repels parasites on contact, it's one of the most practical tools in any Indian dog parent's grooming kit.
At Supertails, we stock India's most complete range of dog tick shampoo and flea wash for dogs, covering every formulation type - medicated chemical-active options like Himalaya Erina EP and Wahl, herbal and neem-based options like DOGZ & DUDEZ and Basil Herbal, waterless tick-free shampoo formats for dogs who resist bathing, and soothing itch-relief options for dogs already showing skin irritation from bites. Prices start from ₹297 for a 200ml bottle - accessible enough for regular use throughout India's tick-heavy seasons.
Whether you're searching for the best tick shampoo for dogs for a Labrador who brings ticks in from park walks, a good flea and tick shampoo for puppies that's gentle enough for young skin, or a tick-free dog shampoo for a dog with a chemical sensitivity - this collection covers it. Scroll down to explore the full range and buyer's guide, or use the filters to sort by formulation, brand, or bottle size.
Shop From The Different Types of Flea and Tick Shampoo for Dogs
Not all anti tick shampoo for dogs works the same way. Here's what each formulation type offers and which dogs each suits best.
Medicated Flea & Tick Shampoo
Medicated flea and tick shampoo for dogs uses active insecticidal ingredients - most commonly pyrethrin, permethrin, or chlorhexidine-based compounds - that kill parasites on contact during the bath. These are the strongest-acting options in the range and the most appropriate choice when your dog already has a visible tick or flea infestation rather than as a routine preventive wash.
The Himalaya Erina EP Tick and Flea Shampoo is the most widely used anti tick shampoo for dogs in India - rated 4.6★, a Supertails' Choice pick, and available in 200ml, 450ml, and 2x200ml formats from ₹508. It uses a medicated formula trusted by Indian vets for decades and works effectively against both ticks and fleas on contact. The Wahl Flea and Tick Shampoo at ₹749 (21% off) is rated 4.7★ and available in 300ml and 700ml - a professional-grade formula from the globally recognised grooming brand, particularly effective for larger breeds with dense coats where thorough lathering matters. Both are suitable for adult dogs. For medicated options in the full-body parasite treatment context, pair with a spot-on treatment for ongoing monthly prevention after the bath. Read our complete guide to tick and flea removal in dogs for a full treatment protocol.
Herbal & Natural Anti Tick Shampoo
For dog parents who prefer avoiding synthetic pesticides - particularly for dogs with sensitive skin, puppies, or breeds prone to allergic reactions - herbal anti tick shampoo uses plant-derived active ingredients like neem, eucalyptus, citronella, and tea tree to repel and disrupt parasites without harsh chemical residues.
The DOGZ & DUDEZ Natural Neem Anti Tick and Flea Shampoo is rated 5.0★ and available in 200ml and 500ml at ₹471 (18% off) - neem is one of the most well-documented natural insect repellents and is particularly effective against ticks in Indian conditions. The Basil Herbal No Ticks Dog Shampoo at ₹412 (18% off) in 250ml and 500ml uses a plant-based formulation for regular weekly use. The Bark Out Loud Tick & Flea Shampoo at ₹297 and rated 5.0★ is the most affordable herbal entry point - a 200ml option that works for dogs and cats. Natural dog shampoo anti tick options generally require more frequent application than medicated options to maintain repellent effect, but are a practical choice for routine preventive bathing between tick seasons. Our guide to natural tick prevention for dogs covers herbal approaches in more detail.
Waterless Tick Shampoo
Some dogs - particularly short-coated breeds, anxious dogs, or elderly dogs with joint pain - strongly resist a full bath. Waterless anti tick shampoo is the practical solution: spray or foam applied directly to the coat, massaged in, and towelled off without rinsing. It provides surface-level tick repellent activity without the stress of a full bath.
The Papa Pawsome Tick Off Waterless Shampoo at ₹381 (15% off) in 250ml is the standout option in this category - specifically formulated as a tick-free dog shampoo that doesn't require water, making it ideal for between-bath spot treatment, post-walk quick clean, or dogs who can't be bathed due to skin wounds or cold weather. It's worth keeping a waterless option alongside your regular dog tick flea shampoo for situations where a full bath isn't feasible.
Itch Relief & Soothing Shampoo
Ticks and fleas don't just create an infestation problem - their bites cause significant skin irritation, redness, and secondary bacterial infections in many dogs, particularly those with existing allergies or sensitive skin. A dog flea shampoo with soothing active ingredients - aloe vera, oatmeal, or medicated anti-inflammatory compounds - helps calm the skin reaction while also addressing the parasite load.
The Dogsee Veda ITCH RELIEF Aloe Vera Shampoo at ₹359 (40% off MRP of ₹599) in 400ml is the best option for this use case - aloe vera's anti-inflammatory properties calm irritated skin while the formula assists in removing surface parasites. This is particularly recommended for dogs who've been scratching heavily, have visible bite marks, or are showing hot spots from flea-allergy dermatitis. Pair with dog skin and coat care products and consult Supertails' vet helpline if skin irritation is severe or spreading.

Shop the Right Flea and Tick Shampoo for Your Dog
The right anti tick shampoo for dogs depends on your dog's age, skin type, infestation level, and how often you plan to bathe them. Here's what to consider before buying.
By Infestation Level
If your dog currently has ticks or fleas visible on their body, a medicated dog tick shampoo with active insecticidal ingredients - Himalaya Erina EP or Wahl - is the right starting point. These formulas kill on contact during the bath and provide the most immediate reduction in parasite load. For dogs who are tick-free and you're bathing preventively before a park visit or after monsoon walks, a herbal tick-free shampoo for dogs - DOGZ & DUDEZ Neem or Bark Out Loud - provides sufficient repellent activity for routine use without the chemical load of a medicated formula. Our guide to tick prevention in dogs during monsoon season covers the seasonal prevention approach in full detail.
By Dog's Age
Puppies under 12 weeks should not be bathed with medicated flea and tick shampoo - their skin barrier is underdeveloped and insecticidal ingredients can cause irritation or toxicity. The best flea and tick shampoo for puppies from this range is the Bark Out Loud Tick & Flea Shampoo or the DOGZ & DUDEZ Neem formula - both gentle enough for young skin. For puppies with a confirmed infestation, consult Supertails' vet helpline before applying any shampoo-based treatment. Our guide to puppy grooming covers safe bathing protocols for the early months.
By Skin Sensitivity
Dogs with a history of skin allergies, contact dermatitis, or atopic skin disease need careful product selection - medicated dog shampoo tick and flea formulas with pyrethrin or permethrin can trigger reactions in sensitised dogs. In these cases, herbal alternatives or the Dogsee Veda Aloe Vera formula are safer starting points. Signs that a shampoo isn't suiting your dog: increased redness 24-48 hours after bathing, new hot spots, or excessive licking of the coat. For dogs with a diagnosed skin condition, pair shampoo use with a dog skin care product and a vet-recommended treatment plan.
By Breed & Coat Type
Dense, double-coated breeds - Labrador Retrievers, Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds, Huskies - need a flea and tick shampoo that lathers and penetrates deeply through thick undercoat where ticks hide most effectively. The Wahl 700ml is the best option here - professional-grade lather that works through even the densest coats. Short-coated breeds like Indie dogs, Beagles, and Boxers are easier to thoroughly treat with any formula in this range. Long-haired breeds like Shih Tzus and Cocker Spaniels need careful rinsing to ensure no shampoo residue remains trapped in the coat post-bath. Browse the full dog shampoo and conditioner range for coat-specific products to use alongside tick shampoo.
Shampoo vs Spot-On
Flea and tick shampoo for dogs provides contact-kill during the bath and short-term repellent activity - it is not a substitute for monthly spot-on treatment. The active ingredients in a dog tick shampoo wash off with the water and provide little to no residual protection beyond a few days at most. Monthly spot-on treatments like Bravecto or Frontline provide systemic or surface-binding protection lasting 4-12 weeks. The correct approach is both together: use flea and tick wash for dogs as part of your regular grooming routine during tick season, and maintain a monthly spot-on as the primary prevention backbone. Browse tick and flea spot-on treatments on Supertails to complete the prevention setup.

FAQs
What is the best flea and tick shampoo for dogs?
The Himalaya Erina EP is the best overall flea and tick shampoo for dogs in India - medicated, vet-trusted, and rated 4.6★. For puppies or sensitive skin, the DOGZ & DUDEZ Neem or Bark Out Loud are the gentler picks. For dense-coated breeds, Wahl is the professional-grade choice.
How often should you use flea and tick shampoo on your dog?
Every 2-4 weeks is the recommended frequency for dog tick shampoo during India's tick-active months. During an active infestation, weekly bathing is appropriate until the problem is cleared. Always use shampoo alongside a monthly spot-on treatment - the shampoo handles surface parasites during the bath, while the spot-on provides the ongoing residual protection that shampoo alone cannot.
How long does it take for flea and tick shampoo to work?
Flea and tick shampoo works during the bath itself - active ingredients kill parasites on contact while the lather is on the coat. Leave it on for 5-10 minutes before rinsing for best results. Note that embedded ticks may not dislodge during the bath and will need manual removal afterward with a tick remover tool. Repellent effect lasts a few days post-bath before diminishing.
How to remove fleas from dogs permanently?
Permanent flea removal requires combining monthly spot-on treatments, fortnightly anti tick shampoo baths, and environmental control - vacuuming carpets, washing bedding, and treating all pets in the household simultaneously. Fleas lay eggs in furniture and flooring, not just on the dog, so surface treatment alone won't eliminate an infestation. Browse our full tick and flea treatment range for the complete toolkit.
What are the first signs of fleas on a dog?
The first sign is usually sudden, intense scratching - especially around the neck, tail base, and belly - before any parasites are visible. On closer inspection, look for flea dirt: tiny dark specks in the coat that turn reddish-brown on a wet white tissue, confirming flea activity. Dogs with flea allergies show faster, more dramatic reactions including hair loss, hot spots, and red irritated skin.
Can indoor dogs get fleas?
Yes - indoor dogs can absolutely get fleas, typically brought in on human clothing and shoes, through contact with other pets, or via infested furniture. Flea eggs can remain dormant in carpets and upholstery for months before hatching. Monthly spot-on treatment is recommended for all dogs regardless of indoor status, supported by regular dog flea shampoo baths and consistent vacuuming of pet resting areas.
