I have checked the area and there is no reddness or any signs of irritation. If it continues I will def call the Vet... I am good for that, they know me very well :cool: |
Frontline you say? Well, I try not to use flea proventative on my Yorkie lol, yeah it sounds like she may have been simply irritated w/ the smell or maybe the feeling of just having a liquid like that sticking w/ her all day. No worries if there isn't any redness; if she's not lethargic; foaming at the mouth...I'd guess that she's fine. |
Lil Bear only had problems if I use Frontline Plus on her. Now that I have Frontline TopSpot, she doesn't get the redness and irritation Moose does what you describe. She will run, bark, rub her face and back in carpet, and will not have anything to do with me for an hr or so. I have explained it is to protect her from yucky fleas but I don't think she cares michelle, moose, and lil bear |
I honestly believe a large part of this is the smell of the chemical that the dogs dislike and are trying to avoid. That's assuming that there aren't any symptoms for an allergic reaction. Have you ever just opened an applicator and let them smell it before you use it? Watch what they do! Try this on a dog who has never even had it on them before. Interesting. |
flea protection My Petey is on Revolution. It protects him against all the same things as frontline as well as heartworms. He never acts too skiddish when it's time to put it on, he just doesn't like the smell to much. I can imagine it's a really strong smell to their little noses. |
I use revolution it covers more and I like in better than advantage and frontline, they are considered a insecticide or pesticide I cant remember, and revolution is not, it also covers american dog tick, ear mites, heartworm, and sarcoptic mange. |

Morning YTer's! Several years ago I used a vet chem product, that I got from my vet, on one of my cats. She freaked! started foaming from the mouth and ran around the house like she was on fire! I had to wash her immediately. I don't like putting chemicals on my little Sadie Mae so, I tried all kinds of natural products. I even bought one of those flea discs that you can get from Foster and Smith....didn't work. Well, my furbaby had fleas...As much as I didn't want to I had to give in and try something..being so small I was afraid of her getting anemic (sp?) I wouldn't say she was full of fleas but just a few are to many for a small animal. I had to finally give in and try something else, I spoke to my vet and he had suggested frontline or advantage. I was a little nervous about the fronline as I have heard some not so good stories. I spoke with some of my yorkie friends and they use Advantage so, I started using that...Sadie didn't have any reactions to it at all and she did fine. I stop using it when flea season is over...I will be starting up again soon. But, I would DEFINATELY stay away from anything you can buy in the stores.. OH! and HAPPY EASTER ALL MY YT FRIENDS! |
