My cat is more sensitive to fleas than my yorkie. Check her for fleas, the Frontline may not be as affective on one as it is on the other. I use a few different flea control methods, but as soon as my cat gets outside the population is replenished inside. If you suspect fleas give her a flea bath and call the vet to make an appointment just in case it's not fleas and it's allergies.
A quick test is to put your pet over a moist paper towel and gently scratch their skin. If anything comes off (mainly small black specs) and the specs "melt" red then thats quite possibly "flea dirt" or flea poop. Because the fleas are eating your dog they poop out the blood and it results in the flea dirt being left behind.
Fleas are not to be taken lightly, as they can carry diseases and left untreated could result in anemia and death in extreme cases. |
