i have tried various different flea control products over the last couple of years, with some effect. have been wondering lately if the chemicals could be linked at all to miscarriage? i spend a lot of time with my dogs and the stuff is absorbed through their skin, and i just had a thought that maybe it does the same to me.

If you read the back of the packaging, it says to wash your hands if you get any on you.
I’m sure most of the world would say no, but the topicals are still a poison. You could be very senstive to it. I think that you should find the 800 # to the manufacturer and ask them.

Yes, I am so sorry about your miscarriages but you are correct in thinking this poison could have hit Your system.
We rub the products ( Frontline and others, ) onto our pet’s skin – and we are to Wear gloves because they tell us NOT to get it on our hands …
Also, you are not to rub your dog or cat for x amount of days after the application… Well, there is a reason for that – it is poison. real poison…
