DO NOT USE BIO SPOT® SPOT ON® FLEA & TICK CONTROL FOR DOGS ON CATS OR FERRETS or animals other than dogs. Cats and ferrets are sensitive to the permethrin found in Bio Spot® Spot On® Flea & Tick Control for Dogs. Cats in close contact with recently treated dogs may be at risk of toxic exposure. Wait 24 hours after application before allowing Bio Spot®-treated dogs to come in contact with cats. Nearly all dogs tolerate Bio Spot® Spot On® Flea & Tick Control for Dogs well. But, as with any flea and tick control product, rare individual dogs may be sensitive to one or more of the ingredients. If your dog shows signs of irritation or sensitivity to the product (redness or itchiness at the application site), discontinue use. Bathe the dog with a mild, non-insecticidal shampoo and seek veterinary advice.
