I washed them to give them some relieve and took them to the vet. The vet administered a Benedryl shot to both of them and told me to keep an eye on them for 48 hours and if they did not improve to call him.
Well, it didn't improve so I called the vet and took them back to the hospital. The vet told me to give them a bath that evening and another in the morning to wash off the med. I did that and 4 days later, it's getting better but my babies are still not 100%.
I'm going back to Frontline (the better of two evils)  Until I figure out how to get my babies off drugs while keeping them safe at the same time (a difficult balancing act)  I cringe every time I have to give drugs to my trusting little angels.  |
Sorry to hear about your baby. Please don’t use any flea repellant; they are all pesticides and can be harmful. Do more research about natural alternative. If your dog doesn’t spend that much time outside no need to use these meds.
Using little garlic can be helpful to repel fleas; or herbal spray with neem or eucalyptis oil; see halo herbal dip.
You can use some antioxidant to detox your dog from the vectra. Vitamin C and E and some milk thistle to detox the liver.
these drugs are horrible and can cause
irreversible neurological problems. good luck
