Question
hi..i used excellpet for flees on the back of my cats neck 4 days ago and she hasn't been right since ...she has diaorear and  her whole body smells like she has rolled in a dead possum ...its really bad she isn't off her foods at all just stinks to high heavens ...any suggestions..thanks for your time ...

Answer
I looked up Excellpet for cats and there is not one listed.  Are you sure this is a cat product?  If it is, what are the active ingredients?  YOu can remove most of these topicals with dish detergentbaths.  If this is a dog product that you aplied to the cat, get the cat to a vet for an exam.
