I have flea problems with one of my dogs, so I went to the pet shop and I saw this flea collar, it says that it will keep fleas away from your dog and have to replace every 4 months. I'm just wondering if would it be toxic to my dog?
Yes. Think about it, anything that has four months worth of pesticide in it isn't something you really want on an animal. Plus, that flea collar will cause a pesticide to be on your dog - your cat would come in contact with it and so will you and any human. This is especially a problem in homes where children will be around the animal in a flea collar. Also, smaller dogs have the same risks as cats - they're poisoned more easily. Larger dogs are a little more resistant, but can still be made very ill from OTC flea products.Originally Posted by MysteryCat
