Topic Dog Boards / Breeding / Frontine when pregnant (human)

Hi Ladies,

I've just had IVF and hopefully pregnant. My problem is my litter has fleas and they are only 2 and a half weeks old so as far as I know frontline spray is the only option.

I have treated the bitch with spot on as it's not so bad on the inhaling part and hubby did it and obviously i'm not touching it but I am putting off doing the pups due to the strong vapours and handling them afterwards. The litter are not in the main part of our house although on CCTV, so I can avoid the vapour for a few days and get hubby to see to pups. I'm just a bit worried about handling them afterwards....do you think that will be ok once the coat has been dry a few days? Has anyone used frontline when pregnant?

Thanks Ladies x

According to the datasheet it is basically eyes and membranes you have to be careful with. I have seen datasheets whee they mention caution whilst pregnant (for the human) but nothing is mentioned here so it should be okay. Get hubby to do it and don't handle the pups until dry.

Goldmali...thankyou so much! Appreciate the link. Hubby did them at lunchtime and is doing all puppy duties for a few days. I must admit it will be bliss to get a full nights sleep.
Thanks for the congrats....early days yet but hopeful :smile:
