It is extremely dangerous to use a medication intended for a larger animal on a smaller one.
The dosage of Frontline is based on the weight of the dog. Using a dose intended for a 40-pound dog on a 10-pound dog could result in a serious overdose, leading to:
* Toxicity: Frontline contains fipronil, which can be toxic if used incorrectly.
* Skin irritation: Overdose can cause skin irritation, itching, and hair loss.
* Neurological problems: In severe cases, an overdose could lead to seizures or other neurological issues.
Please consult your veterinarian about the appropriate flea and tick medication for your 10-pound dog. They can determine the correct dosage and product based on your dog's individual needs.
