Lufenuron is an insect growth regulator (IGR) that is commonly used in veterinary medicine to control fleas in pets. It inhibits the development of flea larvae by interfering with their chitin synthesis, a key component in their exoskeleton formation. This prevents the larvae from maturing into adult fleas.
