I’ve had nothing but rotten results from hartz. The consequences seem to be a crapshoot— at one time I had two cats, both full grown, mother and son. The hartz flea drops had no effect… not even getting rid of the fleas. At a later date I tried Hartz flea collars. One cat it had [...]

Hi there, I recently got two male cats, aged 8 or 9 months. They were not taken care of where they came from. Like every cat, I would see them scratch an itch, but when I started working less, I noticed they were always scratching and digging. Sure enough, Puss and Boots were infected with [...]

For privacy reasons, I can’t say how I know, but I know that the article “Inside Hartz” is quite true. From what I understand, the Blockade problem a few years ago could have been prevented. Seems they tested each ingredient separately, but neglected to test them together. And then, instead of recalling, they simply sent [...]

For privacy reasons, I can’t say how I know, but I know that Hartz is only interested in the bottom line. They have had so many lay-offs in the last few years to make their profit margin look good. Rumor has it that they’re trimming down because they’re being put on the auction block again. [...]

My dog had the Hartz 7 mo. collar on a few days and began to show symptoms of poisoning – slow movement, sleeping a lot, refusing to eat, and finally vomitting up what looked like blood. I did a little research on the internet that indicates it may not be only Hartz, but rather the [...]

We lost our Border to convulsions but can’t remember if he was treated with a Hartz or any other flea product just prior. Weird stuff happening here now though, and you all may have helped pin down a very suspect possibility. Sunny, an 8-yr old Golden and her partner Dahlia, a 8-yr old cat both [...]

Okay, so I had 2 cats, their names Edie (pronounced e.d.) and Squeakers. From the time Edie was born, she had an awesome personality that I loved and we bonded instantly. Their mother had fleas, so, of course, i started giving the mother baths (not hartz) to get rid of them, and picked the fleas [...]

There is no way for anyone to fix what has happened in our home over the last 24 hours. I made the fatal mistake of buying a HARTZ flea/tick spray to treat my kitten-being uninformed of the possible effects-and now less than a day later she’s gone. I feel like the biggest idiot in the [...]

WARNING! THIS IS GROSS! My maltese is 10 years old. I have always used Frontline but for financial reasons, tried the Hartz assuming they are a reputable company. Everyone’s heard of them right?

I do not recommend using Hartz flea treatment of any kind. After reading these horrific stories, I suggest, with any chemical product you put on your pet, even if it comes from a vet, that you first try a test patch first. As women who use hair coloring know, the instructions read to first mix [...]

We recently adopted a 6 year old cat, who is the size of a kitten, who was left outside of our house. We took her in and did the vet check-ups and etc. She still had some fleas, that we didn’t want our other cats to catch, so we bought some medicine from Hartz to [...]

I got a hartz flea collar because my cat got dandruff after using one of the drops. Not sure if it was related, but I thought I’d give the collar a try since she only showed evidence of 1-2 fleas. After I put it on, she didn’t like it, but I attributed that to her [...]

Bubby was my 12 year old orange tiger cat that I had since I was a little girl. I am a veterinary technology student and my animals are like my children. A few weeks ago we noticed that Bubby had fleas (even though my mom was religious about using the Hartz flea and tick treatment). [...]
