My vet and groomer have told me something similar. They said that it is actually more harmful to cats because they metabolize things differently than humans and dogs. The vet also told me that anything you put on your skin or your pets skin makes it into your or their blood stream. It will even enter into the blood stream faster the younger the human, dog or cat is, as the skin as thinner when you are younger. My vet and groomer recommend eucalyptus oil, which is not toxic to humans and pets, and can be applied in either a dip (mix the oil in their bath water) or the same way you use Frontline or the others. (a few drops on the back of the neck) I has worked so far for my pets, and is well worth a try. Good Luck! |
