I accidentally put a small dog flea treatment on my cat what do I do .. I washed off as much as I could but what should I do now
Hi Daniell. My vet just told me to wash my cat with a cat shampoo thoroughly. I felt bad I did the same thing. Your cat will be fine in a day or so. Best of luck to you and your kitty. Kind regards. Craig.
Hi again Danielle. Another thing don’t waste your money on Totalcare pet products it doesn’t work. Spend the little extra on Nexguard or a similar product. Vets just shake their heads at totalcare because it’s rubbish. Kind regards. Craig K.

If dog eat what happened
I gave my dog flea knockdown 11.4mg nitenpyram. Can I also use flea spray
i purchased Purina totalcare flea & tick control, on the box for 1 month coverage, only to open it the paperwork inside the box states for parylasis ticks cover only last 2 weeks, im confused if i have to treat her every 2 weeks for ticks arent i overdosing for the flea coverage. and 2. it works out to be so expensive at 24.95$ per fortnight equating to $598.80 per year for tick cover. i am on a disabillity pension for Multiple Sclerosis, how on earth am i supposed to afford this. we had our male cattle dog nearly succum to tick paraylsis last week, his a miracle his pulled through. i purchase purina for my dogs nearly every week, if i am right with costing for tick protection for 2 dogs and one is a large dog 1 medium dog there is noway i can afford this product for them. so whilst i am paying off
$3.000 vet bill for 1 and 1/2 years is there any chance purina could help me out with any pet food at all. thanking you, awaiting your reply.

Hi Michelle, put it this way, I would be looking for a much cheaper alternative..... What I love about this Purina Product is it's one month availability in a supermarket.... As far as your situation like me you should always look for the best prices..... This Purina Total care is for when I can't afford to buy my regular 3,6 or 12 month supply of frontline plus.... I am a pensioner and like you cannot afford so many things.... Go Online, type in Google or Duckduck go, flea and tick control and hit enter.... it will give you a list of sites to check out, look for best prices and then its your choice... Michele I made a comment on how impressed I am with Purina flea and tick control, I cannot help you with your financial situation, I too find ends hard to meet, my dogs eye had to be removed, it cost me $2,500 so I do understand..... as far as Purina helping you out with dog food you would have to contact them, I don't work for them.... Also try Red Cross maybe they can help, quite often your Doctor can give you some tips of who to seek.... Hope this helps you a little....
I used this product on my retriever x kelpie (large) dog and it did nothing, he still has fleas so is it okay to put another treatment of advantix on him? Just wondering if anyone's had similar issues?
Hi Rustys mum, I actually had great success with mine.... As long as you weighed your dog and are giving the correct dosage for his weight.... The first thing I would do is give your dog a good flea shampoo and an extra good rinse.... Then I would put another Total Care Spot on Flea Control on it..... Also make sure your dog bed and any blanket it washed in really hot water on a regular bases.... If you vacuum your carpet daily, there should be no reason for it not to work.. If your doing all these things and it's still not working I would change it over to Frontline plus... I found at first my dog was sleeping on an old sheep skin rug in my garage... it was riddled with fleas, I didn't even know I had it! Good luck... my [email removed] if you want to email me direct...
Kill the fleas with MALAWASH. Most pet shops have it, I make up a bucket with warm water and pour it from neck to tail, massage in with gloves, (has a strong odour, don’t let it put you off if you really want fleas gone.) then mix up a spray bottle for bedding, rugs, door mats, car carpet, lawn/ dirt spots( I have a border collie, loves getting dirty) any flea habitat. , keep it away from eyes, mouth etc dab under chin/ top of head with sponge if necessary. I spent hundreds trying out other stuff, this is about $30.? Last you for years. I won’t play down the fact it works straight away because it’s potent, she hasn’t had any side effects other than instant relief. I have no affiliation, just wanted the fleas gone and this definitely does it.
