Bark Out Loud Natural Flea & Tick Spray for Dogs and Cats

Bark Out Loud Natural Flea & Tick Spray for Dogs and Cats - 100% Natural Flea and Tick Protection With Zero Harsh Chemicals

Pharma-grade tick treatments are effective - but they're not always the right choice for every pet or every situation. Sensitive skin. Very young puppies or kittens. A pet parent who prefers to avoid synthetic chemicals wherever possible. A home with young children where you'd rather not have pesticide residue on your dog's coat. These are all legitimate reasons to want a natural alternative that actually works.

The Bark Out Loud Natural Flea & Tick Spray is a 100% natural, plant-based flea and tick spray for dogs and cats, formulated with a blend of three key essential oils - Cedarwood, Rosemary, and Sesame - that work together to kill and repel fleas, ticks, and lice without any synthetic insecticides, harsh chemicals, or pharmaceutical actives. Safe enough to use on puppies and kittens. Safe to spray around the house, on bedding, furniture, and carpets. Not harmful if licked.

Manufactured by Vetinnov, Castelnaudary, France. Marketed in India by Vivaldis Health and Foods Pvt. Ltd., Pune.

Available in two pack options:

The twin pack works out to ₹386.50 per bottle - a small saving for households with multiple pets or those using the spray frequently through peak tick season.

What Are the Uses and Benefits of Bark Out Loud Natural Flea & Tick Spray?

• This natural flea and tick spray is designed for pet parents who want effective parasite control through plant-based ingredients rather than synthetic chemicals. Here's exactly what it does:
• Flea and tick repellent and kill - the Cedarwood and Rosemary oils in the formula actively repel fleas and ticks from your pet's coat, while also working to kill adult fleas and ticks on contact. It also disrupts the flea life cycle by targeting eggs and larvae, helping to prevent reinfestation after the initial spray-down. Protection lasts for 2-3 days per application for prevention, or provides immediate relief during an active infestation when applied generously and consistently.
• Home environment treatment is one of the standout features of this spray that most spot-ons and collars can't offer. You can safely spray it directly on your pet's bedding, furniture, flooring, and carpets to eliminate the flea and tick life cycle in the environment - not just on your pet. Since fleas spend the majority of their life cycle off the pet (in the home environment), treating the environment is a critical part of managing any infestation.
• Skin and coat enrichment through Sesame Oil - beyond the antiparasitic action, the Sesame Oil in the formula is rich in antioxidants that protect the skin from inflammation and oxidative stress, absorb into the coat, and leave it softer and shinier after use. This makes Bark Out Loud a spray that genuinely benefits the coat rather than just functioning as a parasite deterrent.
• Antiseptic, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory action from Cedarwood Oil provides additional skin health benefits beyond tick and flea control - useful for pets with mild skin irritation or secondary skin infections from scratching.
• Safe for all life stages - unlike pharmaceutical tick treatments that have minimum age requirements, this natural spray is safe for use on puppies, kittens, and adult pets of all breeds. For more on the importance of flea and tick control across all life stages, the blog on cat fleas and ticks treatment and prevention is a helpful read.

What Are the Possible Side Effects?

• The Bark Out Loud spray is made entirely from natural essential oils with no synthetic chemicals or pesticide actives. Side effects are extremely rare.
• Some pets - particularly those with very sensitive skin or known sensitivities to essential oils - may experience mild skin irritation at the application site. If this happens, rinse the area with clean water and discontinue use.
• The strong natural scent of the essential oils, particularly Cedarwood and Rosemary, may cause brief sneezing in some pets when first applied. This is a normal response to a concentrated aromatic spray and passes quickly - hold the bottle at a slightly greater distance from your pet and spray in short bursts to reduce this.
• Avoid spraying directly into the eyes, ears, or nose. If accidental eye contact occurs, rinse immediately with clean water.
• If licked after application, the natural ingredients are not acutely toxic - however, large ingestion of concentrated essential oils is not recommended. Apply and allow to dry naturally before your pet can lick the treated area.
• One important honest note for pet parents managing a significant infestation: this is a natural product, not a pharmaceutical pesticide. For heavy or established tick infestations - particularly on dogs with thick coats or very high outdoor exposure during peak tick season - a pharmaceutical-grade treatment like a spot-on or oral tablet will typically be more effective. Bark Out Loud works best as a preventive spray, for mild infestations, for sensitive pets who cannot tolerate chemical treatments, and as a complement to other parasite control measures.

How Should You Use Bark Out Loud Natural Flea & Tick Spray?

• Shake the bottle well before every use. The essential oils can settle between uses - shaking ensures an even distribution of all active ingredients in each spray.
• For prevention: spray on your pet every 2-3 days, and before outdoor walks or visits to parks and grassy areas. Spray generously across the coat, parting the fur to ensure it reaches the skin. Pay particular attention to the neck, ears, belly, and between the toes - the areas where ticks prefer to hide and feed.
• For treatment during an active infestation: spray generously on your pet's entire body once daily for 3-4 days until the infestation subsides. The product takes up to 5 hours to start working after application - give it time before assessing results.
• For home environment treatment: spray directly on your pet's bedding, furniture, carpets, and flooring - anywhere fleas and ticks could be completing their life cycle off your pet. This environmental treatment step is often the most important one and is frequently skipped.
• Allow the spray to dry naturally after application. Do not towel dry or rinse off.

How Does Bark Out Loud Natural Flea & Tick Spray Work?

• The spray works through three natural plant-based oils, each contributing differently to the overall antiparasitic and skin-health effect.
• Cedarwood Oil is the primary antiparasitic active. It kills fleas and ticks through a combination of mechanisms - it disrupts the octopamine neurotransmitter systems of insects (a system that doesn't exist in mammals, which is why it's safe for dogs and cats), causes dehydration of the insect's exoskeleton, and physically suffocates insects and larvae by blocking their breathing pores. It also destroys flea eggs and larvae, disrupting the life cycle at multiple stages. Additionally, Cedarwood Oil has natural antiseptic, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory properties - which benefit skin health at the application site.
• Rosemary Oil is a strong, long-lasting natural insect repellent. It doesn't kill parasites on contact in the same way Cedarwood does - instead, its volatile aromatic compounds create an environment that fleas, ticks, and other insects actively avoid. This is why it's particularly effective as a preventive measure applied before outdoor exposure.
• Sesame Oil contributes the skin and coat conditioning benefit. Rich in natural antioxidants including Vitamin E and sesamol, it protects the skin from the oxidative stress caused by inflammation, soothes any irritation from flea bites or scratching, and absorbs into the coat to improve texture and shine. It also acts as a carrier that helps the other oils penetrate the coat and reach the skin rather than sitting on the surface fur.

What Safety Advice Should You Know Before Using This Spray?

• For dogs and cats of all ages and breeds - including puppies and kittens. No minimum age or weight restriction, which is one of the significant advantages over pharmaceutical tick treatments.
• Avoid spraying directly into the eyes, ears, nose, or mouth. If accidental eye contact occurs, rinse immediately with clean water.
• Do not use on pets with known hypersensitivity or allergy to any of the essential oil ingredients. If you're unsure, test a small amount on a patch of skin and observe for 24 hours before applying to the full body.
• While the spray is safe to use around children and can be sprayed on home surfaces, keep children away from the treated pet until the coat is fully dry after application.
• Store below 30°C away from direct sunlight. Keep the cap tightly closed between uses. Keep out of reach of children.
• The spray is safe to use on furniture, bedding, and carpets - however, test on a small, inconspicuous patch of upholstery first if you're concerned about any effect on delicate or light-coloured fabrics.

What Should You Do If You Miss a Dose?

• Since this is a preventive spray rather than a timed pharmaceutical medication, there's no strict missed dose scenario. Simply resume spraying at the next opportunity and continue from there.
• For prevention, the recommended application frequency is every 2-3 days - consistency at this interval gives the best results. Gaps of a week or more, particularly during the monsoon and post-monsoon months when tick activity is highest, can allow infestation to establish. Building the spray into a fixed routine - pre-walk spray every morning - is the simplest way to stay consistent without needing a reminder.

What Are Some Quick Tips for Getting the Most Out of Bark Out Loud?

• Shake the bottle before every single spray - not just the first use. Essential oils separate from the water base quickly, and an un-shaken bottle delivers an uneven concentration.
• Apply before every outdoor walk, not just during an active infestation. The rosemary oil's repellent effect is most powerful as a preventive measure - putting it on before your dog is exposed to ticks in parks and grassy areas is more effective than spraying after they come home.
• Don't skip the home spray. Fleas spend up to 95% of their life cycle off your pet - in carpets, bedding, furniture crevices. If you're only spraying your pet but not the home environment, you're addressing a small fraction of the problem. Spray your pet's sleeping areas thoroughly at least twice a week during an active flea situation.
• Use generously. A light misting on the coat surface is not enough - part the fur and spray until the skin is lightly dampened, particularly in the areas ticks favour. Underapplication is the most common reason natural sprays underperform.
• For cats: spray onto your hands first and then apply by stroking through the coat - most cats are more comfortable with this approach than having a spray bottle pointed directly at them.
• Pair with a post-walk tick check every time. Run your fingers through your dog's coat after every outdoor walk, paying particular attention to the neck, ears, and between the toes. The blog on how to identify and remove ticks from your dog shows the correct manual removal technique.

FAQs

What is Bark Out Loud Natural Flea & Tick Spray used for?

It's a 100% natural plant-based spray for dogs and cats that kills and repels fleas, ticks, and lice using Cedarwood, Rosemary, and Sesame essential oils - with no synthetic chemicals or pesticide actives. It can be used directly on pets, and also on bedding, furniture, carpets, and flooring to eliminate the flea and tick life cycle in the home environment. Safe for puppies, kittens, and pets of all ages and breeds.

How often should I apply Bark Out Loud spray on my pet?

For prevention, spray every 2-3 days and always before outdoor walks or park visits. For treatment during an active infestation, spray generously once daily for 3-4 days until the infestation subsides. The product takes up to 5 hours to fully activate after application - give it time before assessing results.

Can I use this spray on my puppy or kitten?

Yes - this is one of the key advantages of a natural spray over pharmaceutical alternatives. There is no minimum age or weight restriction for the Bark Out Loud spray. It is safe for puppies, kittens, and adult pets of all breeds. For very young animals under 8 weeks, spray onto your hands and apply gently by stroking through the coat rather than spraying directly.

Is it safe to spray on furniture and carpets with children in the home?

Yes - the spray contains no synthetic chemicals or pesticides, making it safe to use on surfaces in homes with children. Allow sprayed surfaces to dry fully before children or pets come into contact with them. As a general precaution, test on a small inconspicuous patch of upholstery first if you're concerned about any effect on delicate fabrics.

Will this spray work against a heavy tick infestation?

Bark Out Loud is most effective as a preventive spray and for mild infestations. For heavy or established tick infestations - particularly on dogs with thick coats or high outdoor exposure - a pharmaceutical-grade treatment such as a spot-on or oral tablet will typically provide more reliable knock-down of a significant parasite burden. Many pet parents use Bark Out Loud as a daily preventive spray alongside a monthly pharmaceutical treatment for layered protection. Consult your vet if the infestation is significant.

Can I spray this on my cat?

Yes - the spray is safe for both dogs and cats. For cats who are sensitive to being sprayed, apply by spraying onto your hands first and then gently stroking it through your cat's coat. Pay attention to the neck, behind the ears, and along the back. Avoid the eyes, ears, and mouth as with all topical products.

How long does one 200 ml bottle last?

This depends on how frequently you use it, how many pets you have, and whether you also spray the home environment. For a single medium-sized dog sprayed every 2-3 days on the body only, one 200 ml bottle typically lasts 4-6 weeks. If you're also spraying the home environment regularly or have multiple pets, the twin 2 x 200 ml pack at ₹773 gives better value and ensures you don't run out during peak tick season.

Does this spray have a strong smell?

The Cedarwood and Rosemary essential oils have a distinctly natural, woody-herbal scent that is noticeable immediately after spraying. Most pet parents find it pleasant - it fades within an hour or two as the coat dries. Some pets may sneeze briefly when first exposed to the concentrated spray. Hold the bottle slightly further away and use short bursts if your pet seems sensitive to the initial scent.
