My cat almost died after being treated with a spot-on flea treatment 
last year.  Our vet said that the stuff would not be on the market were 
there an FDA for animals because they so often react with seizures and 
even death to this stuff.  In fact, many brands are now being pulled, 
some by choice by manufacturers, some by force of law.  Just last week 
my mother's Maine Coon cat spent 3 days in intensive care because he 
reacted to some sort of prescribed spot-on treatment.  I won't be using 
this stuff on any living creature ever again.  It's way too good to be 
true, really.  I don't see how something dripped here and there could 
make the whole horse distasteful to flies without doing something 
pretty extreme to the whole horse.... Before anyone starts going on 
about how wonderful the stuff is, I know it's probably great for those 
beasties who don't have a bad reaction.  I'm just saying I personally 
would be pretty reluctant to take the risk.

staggering and vomiting
