Re: UDATE: URGENT: My baby is having a horrible reaction please HELP!!!!!
OH MY... allergic to fleas!! Hope and pray she is better soon.... I never heard of comfortis but going to do some research about it now
Ok so took her to a vet that specializes in English bulldogs which was in another state only 35 mins though thank god...Anyways he's thinking she's allergic to fleas since he combed her and he saw one dead and one alive...But it may have been the shampoo because it was new but I did however use it on her a month back and no reaction. He said it could also be her food since we just switched it last month but its the same brand just different ingredients somewhat, So in food part we just have to see if if clears up. But he said he's pretty sure she's allergic to fleas..He shaved her and cleaned up the mess and gave her a Depo shot Im assuming a steroid some antibiotics(cephalexian 500mg 2x's daily for 10 days) a spray called Zymox topical 2xs a day up to two weeks and flea chew-able tablet called comfortis(has anyone heard about it? I was using vectra 3d before is this better then vectra?) She seems a little more comfortable and sleeping since we got home but Im sure that shave and scrub wasn't pleasant and wore her down I was crying hearing her scream Im having our pest guy come out tomorrow morning to spray for fleas inside and we will discuss about the yard getting sprayed too. I hope this is all it was because my heart cant go through this again and Im sure she feels the same way...I feel so helpless and sad that she has to go through this I will keep yall updated and try and load more pics of her progress thanks for all the support and answers
