Hello, i was wondering if anyone can help me. My 18 month old yorkie seems to be allergic to flea (frontline) drops. Everytime I treat her she seems to get so depressed and very lethargic-she also seems to hide her head as if she has a headache. I have just tried a herbal flea collar, but within 10 minutes she started getting depressed. Has anyone else ever had this problem? The vet said she may be allergic to pesticides-but the herbal treatment has none in? I do not want her to get fleas but I also hate to see her like this. Any help would be so appreciated.
