Here's why:
* Frontline contains fipronil, a pesticide. While safe for dogs when applied topically, ingestion can lead to potential health issues.
* The severity of symptoms depends on factors like the dog's size, age, and amount consumed.
* Early intervention is crucial. Contacting a professional quickly can help prevent serious complications.
Here are some things to do if you think your dog has eaten Frontline:
* Don't induce vomiting unless directed by your veterinarian or APCC.
* Gather the following information for the veterinarian or APCC:
* The type of Frontline product (e.g., Frontline Plus, Frontline Spray)
* The amount your dog likely consumed
* Your dog's weight and breed
* Any symptoms your dog is showing
* Take your dog to the veterinarian or follow their instructions.
