As some of you know, I had a baby opossum that I rescued and fed and grew to a safe size and released. One of the things that I did was spray him with some kitten flea spray. It killed all of his fleas.
All of the spray I see says for cats and some of it is "safe for kittens". However, never once have I found DOG flea spray and I'd like to know if cat spray can or can't be used on a dog. Are there neurological differences? Something harmful for canines?
I'm asking because my little 15 year old, eight pound Chihuahua, Chester, has been picking up fleas from the yard when he goes outside and I can't treat the yard because right now my tortoises are "free ranging."
The itching is driving both of us nuts.
I use FRONTLINE on him once a month and have tried ALOE, etc. But this daily attack is too much.
