Has anyone one been following the news about flea treatments?

It's good that you are letting everyone know about this as many people on this site do use Hartz flea treatment among others. I only use Revolution from the vet. Hope everyone will see this!

Yes, I've known about the spot-on flea control products causing major health problems in cats for years. My cat almost died from one of these products. I did everything humanly possible to warn others: I reported it to the EPA, and did my best to inform the company about my cat's severe reaction. This is a very serious problem. I'm glad it's finally coming to the forefront in the news.

This has my full story and a lot of information on methoprene and other neurotoxins.

We;re not using frontline anymore, for some reason it seems to have burned the skin on my cat (Where it was applied) and fur hasn't grown back. So we're not sure what we're doing this year but so far we haven't had an issue with fleas at all

Exactly, I have heard this about Hartz also. It can cause skin problems which can become so severe that the pet dies. I would advise that everyone only get their meds from their vet, including their flea treatments.
