The "Do Not" List
• Do not use flea and tick control products if your pet is not healthy. If your pet is weak, feeble, pregnant, nursing, aged, using medication or has other health issues, contact Sergeant’s 24-hour hotline (800-224-7387) or your veterinarian before application.
• Do not use products not intended for your pet. Never apply a dog product on a cat and vice versa. Dog products can be toxic to cats.
• Do not use flea and tick control products if your pet does not meet the minimum weight requirements stated on the product package.
• Do not use flea and tick control products if your pet does not meet the minimum age requirements stated on the product package.
• Do not self-dose. If you have a 20 pound dog, do not use half the dose intended for a 40 pound dog.
• Do not double-dose. Determine when your pet was last treated with flea and tick control products – this includes flea and tick squeeze-ons, shampoos, powders and sprays. Check the product packaging or call Sergeant’s or your veterinarian to ensure the recommended time has passed since the last application before applying the new product.
• Do not use flea and tick control products if you are unable to separate your pets during treatment. It’s important to separate pets for 24 hours after application to avoid grooming and ingestion of the product.
