Within an hour of applying this Zodiac Spot on flea control, my dog was yelping and twitching. It's been a week, and after a bath and vet visit she is still suffering. The vet said that this product should be banned, it harmed a lot of animals.

I put this on my dog and she had a terrible reaction. I immediately gave her a bath and tried to wash as much of this off as I could. This is a very dangerous product (I now know), and has killed many dogs or made them very ill. It certainly does not help with fleas, and is a total waste of money. When I purchased this I was told it contains the same ingredients as the more expensive brands, please do not believe this, you and your dog will regret it.

Put this on our 13lb dog for mosquito control. He started itching like crazy, it's been 2 days, have to give him benadryl. Spend the extra money on the good stuff for the sake of your dog.

I love this product. Not only does it keep the fleas away, it has a great orange smell too!!!

I used this product on my smaller dogs,and it has worked great.It's been over a month since I treated them,and there have been no flair ups.great stuff.

I was trying to save a little money and decided to use this product instead of Front-line or Advantage plus. When I put this on my dogs it seemed like the fleas became even more aggressive than they were,and it did not kill any fleas. The dogs were itching like mad and could not even sleep or sit still.I have been reading around the internet that this stuff has sickened and even killed people's precious pets. AND they use cruel testing methods on beloved companion animals which I read on the Peta site. After four weeks I spent the money on Front-line Plus and within days the fleas were all gone.

I started buying this when stray cats were coming in my yard that had ticks...The guy at petco told me under his breath that it is exactly the same as advantage..he was right and for a fraction of the price. Funny how petco eventually stopped carrying it, like maybe it was just to cheap lol? I used to find it at big lots and now I get it here, thank goodness. My dog has never ever had a bad reaction to it. He gets groomed (shaved) then I put it right on his skin, and schnauzers are known for sensitive skin..never one problem, just no fleas, or ticks ever.

I have a silky terrier that's right over 15 pounds, so I have been giving him the entire dose every time.

The other owners are right. He gets very quiet and protest the application every time I put this on, however I did not have burn marks on my dog. I proceeded to use it for 2 years on my terrier. It has worked perfectly.

This past September, however, zodiac finally failed me. I reapplied my dog after about 3 weeks because I thought the dosage had weakened, however, fleas just go around the area and appears to have increase in numbers. I currently have no clue if I can apply Advantage 2 on my dog because it seems dangerous to put more insecticide on him.

The flea situation has not improved. It's been over a month.

My father purchased this for his dog but he was too big. I decided to use it on my mini poodle. I used about 1/3rd of the contents because I was afraid of a reaction. Unfortunately, I had been right to be afraid. Just a few minutes after application, my dog was whimpering and couldn't get up or move. He started alternatively biting his tail and his spine and licking himself like crazy. I immediately gave him a long bath. It did nothing. I gave him another bath with Dawn. Nothing. By the end of it all, I gave him about 8 baths that night, some with Dawn and others I just poured buckets of water over him and let the shower hose run. He improved a little near bed time but by that point I was ready to take him to the emergency vet. I stayed up to watch him just in case. The next morning he was still whimpering and lethargic but nowhere near as bad as the night before. Over the next few days I gave him several baths and he slowly started to recuperate. Thankfully he is back to normal now, but I'm almost certain that my dog would have died if I had applied the entire product. I have had dogs all my life and I have never seen a reaction like this.

Please stick with quality products and don't buy this! There is a reason it's so cheap. It may work for a few dogs, but it's not worth taking the risk on yours.

Really appreciated the price on the Zodiac spot on flea and tick control. Have three dogs and I'm always trying to save money without skimping on their health.
