My dog got mange from Hartz products!
The begining of last week I found one flea on my dog, that has never ever ever had fleas. I freaked out and ran to Wal-Mart to buy some flea drops so I could get something done ASAP. I work during normal business hours, so I’m unable to get to the vet during the week. [...]
Lost adopted kitty from shelter after only 24 hours
My five yeor old daughter looked at the local Humane Society Animal Shelter for a kitten for four days trying to pick the perfect kitten. After finally deciding on the perfect pet, she adoped “Drew” who she renamed “Tiger”, a 12 week old orange and white kitten that was absolutely adorable! We brought Tiger home [...]

Thanks for the warning
At the beginning of the summer, I applied Hartz flea and tick drops to my two dogs and three of my cats. They had absolutely no adverse reactions, but because the product seemed ineffective- I did not bother using it again. And now I read these terrible stories- to think I put my precious babies [...]
My cats’ experience with Hartz
Our cats are indoor-only and we’d never had a problem with fleas, but they were infested by a pet-sitter who brought them into our house with her belongings. Being clueless, we bought some Hartz Advanced Care Flea & Tick drops. About 10 minutes after receiving his application, our 18-pound cat, Pippen, was crying and drooling [...]
Did Hartz Flea Drops kill Ashley?
On May 15, 2003, I applied Hartz Advanced Care Flea and Tick Drops for Cats on my 4 year old cat, Ashley. Within hours, she was running around the house, freaking out. The next morning, she was trembling and I brought her to my vet. The vet was not surprised that Ashley was suffering and [...]
E-mail from Dr. Chance Fisher
Dr. Fisher wrote in last week and said “As a former veterinarian at Hartz, I can accurately state that we DO NOT produce the Zodiac product line.” It was late when I received this e-mail and I immediately responded by saying something to the effect of Hartz products are a bunch of garbage. I then [...]
Hartz Products = DANGER
on 6/16/03 I used the Hartz Flea and Tick drops on my 1yr old cat. Everything seemed fine the next morning, but around 1:30pm I recieved a call at work from my husband who said my cat was freaking out. So I rush home to find her in convulsions. I immediately take her to the [...]
Hartz Flea and Tick
My darling little 14 week old kitten went into tremors and shock after applying a flea product made by Hartz. Is there not a class action lawsuit against the manufacturer?
Hartz Flea & Tick Causes Seizure in Large Dog
I applied Hartz to my 86.4 lb lab recently and the next morning he had a very severe seizure. I was only aware of the dangers for cats, but apparently Hartz is also extremely dangerous for dogs – even big dogs! I took him to the vet immediately and he stayed all day for observation. [...]

One of the lucky ones
I used Hartz Control Flea and Tick Replent spray on my cat Merlyn. It was horrible, he started frothing at the mouth, his eyes glazed over and he wouldn’t move. When he did move, he ran like he was trying to get away from it. Luckily he didn’t have convulsions nor did he have to [...]
Blockade Poison
Hartz almost killed my cat. At the time she was only 3 years old, I naively bought some flea spray for pets cause I lived on the east coast at the time, and was dealing with the yearly infestation. I was going out of town for the weekend, but before I left I tried to [...]

Zodiac?
My cat died 2 days ago from Zodiac flea treatment. I don’t know if Hartz makes it..I wasn’t actually the one that put it on my Kiki. I watched KiKi have seizures and the vet said they could save him but for $800 and I didn’t have it… they wouldn’t bill me… they wouldn’t help. [...]
Cat spent the night with an IV
I bought the flea drops for cats about a week before I went on vacation. I applied it to one cat (the other was outside) on the neck in back, just as instructed. That cat had no problems whatsoever. I promptly forgot about the other cat. Then, a week later when we were leaving for [...]

I have no excuse, except ignorance but now I will devote a significant amount of time exposing this product and the problems it causes. I used the “spot-on” treatment on my 12 lb cat. I used the product for cats in EXACTLY the manner prescribed on the box. Today my cat is the Er receiving [...]
