I applied hartz flea medicine on my cat about two days ago, and while she was squirming i missed her neck a bit and rolled down a bit to her shoulder. five minutes later, she started to lick it and acted like she had tasted something bad. shes done this a few times now and every time i try to get her to stop by clapping and yelling. she stops licking but makes another face. she doesnt have any odd twitching going on, nor have i seen her vomit (although she may have outside :L). she hasnt drooled all over the house, or foamed. she sounds normal when she meows. she sleeps a bit more, but is eating and drinking as usual.
today i tried to get the flea medicine off to avoid any more unseen mishaps, and tried using water and citrus (as i read somewhere) but it didnt really come off.
so, could someone tell me either/both:
do you think my cat will be okay
and/or
what is the best way to remove her flea medicine?
thanks!
i just washed her with shampoo and water--almost all of the medicine came out (except for a little where she cant reach it), and shes still showing no symptoms other cats have had (violent seizures, walking like walking in a puddle, foaming, vomiting, etc)
