@inatlaka: We are doing ok now, we had a really rough couple of days though.
My cousin (who is 1 of my roommates) has a 90lb dog who is just the sweetest girl around, was having a severe flea issue. We had bought online a soft inflatable cone to keep her from chewing at the fleas (we also ordered flea medication online but it hadn't come in yet). Well, she chewed at the cone to get to the tail area where she was chewing at fleas and completely deflated it so it wasn't stopping her. It was getting bad, fast. We ended up taking her to the vet (you have to stay inside the vehicle, wearing a mask and they come out to you to get your dog) The vet made it out like she just couldn't wait for the flea treatment we ordered online and really pushed for my cousin to give her a chewable flea medication called Bravecto. She gave her the chewable at 11pm with food and by 530AM she started seizing.
She had 3 very big seizures by 730 (the vet opened up at 8) the vet said that medication can cause seizures (we are thinking and you pushed us to give her this?? at $70 a pill!) She said she had to go onto an anti-seizure medication for the next 3 months while that Bravecto is in her system. While filling the prescription, she had another huge seizure in the car. It was terrifying! Then for the next couple days we had to watch her to make sure she didn't seize.
She's doing better now, but we won't know if she will have to be on anti seizure medication for the rest of her life until after 3 months. Sometimes when seizures are triggered, they have them forever.
