...Also, are any of you using a flea and tic control product by the name "Comfortis"? It was recommended to me by the group I got my rescued Husky from but I've seen a lot of bad side effects listed on-line. .... Any feedback on these two issues would be appreciated.
As you found there are a lot of reports of sick dogs with this particular flea treatment. Their own testing shows vomiting to be the norm after administering. AND the FDA issued a warning report regarding adverse toxic reactions when administering ivermectin to dogs on Comfortis. Do not administer to dogs that have seizures, pancreatitis, diabetes.
IMHO list is too long of dogs that should not be given this flea treatment, and vomiting and loss of appetite being considered the norm would make me run from using this product.
