Never use a flea collar unless you're going to supervise your pup 24-7. When Turbo was a puppy, the lady that was taking care of him for me put a flea collar on him & he almost died! He tried to take it out & it got caught in his mouth. He ingested the toxin & went into shock & had seizures. They took him to the ER & Thank God he was ok after treatment.
I've always used Frontline (even tho I hate to, but we get bad flea problems here) & never had any problems. I apply half a dose & apply the other half couple of days later. If you have one fur baby, make sure the medication is securely contained in a glass container away from the sun. Then the other half can be administered later. |
