My dog recently got fleas. I think she got it when I went down to West Covina and my cousin took her for a walk. There were these two stray dogs running around and my cousin, who loves dogs, decided to go near them. Well I guess the strays had fleas and gave them to my dog.
Anyways, its been a couple weeks now and Ive been using hartz flea and ticket drops. Tonight I saw a flea crawling around my dogs belly so i decided to put some more drops on her. Afterwards, I wanted to look up some tips on how to get rid of fleas. I bump into a website that said to stay away from hartz because their products have been known to have killed pets. I started to have this sick feeling. I immediately googled up more info to see if it was true. Then I bump into this website
http://hartzvictims.org/. I was horrified by now and worried sick. I read the stories of how people pets have gotten sick and died from the same product Im using.
I grab my dog and take her to the bathroom. I give her a shower, trying to rub out the places where I placed to drops. My whole body was shaking in nervousness and thoughts ran through my head of what i would do if I lost her. Its a sickening feeling. Right now, I got her dry and Im just going to watch her tonight. I hope she will be fine. Please pray for her!
and Dont ever use Hartz! I wish i would have known earlier...
