Question:

Neostomosan 5 ml ( flea animal threatment) can I use it inside house?

I'm reaching out here because I'm in a bit of a panic and really need some advice. I've been dealing with a pretty bad flea infestation lately, and it's driving me and my two cats crazy. I picked up some Neostomosan 5 ml to treat the fleas on them, but I've read conflicting things online about whether I can use it inside the house. I don’t want to make the situation worse by using it wrong or posing a risk to my cats or myself. Has anyone here used Neostomosan indoors before, and if so, how did it go? Any tips or precautions I should consider? I just want to make sure I’m doing the right thing for my fur babies. Thanks, everyone!

Answer:

Hi there! Thank you for reaching out with your question about Neostomosan. It's understandable to want a flea-free home and to ensure the safety of your pets and family while using treatments. Neostomosan is primarily designed for use on animals, such as dogs and cats, to control fleas and other parasites. It's important to note that products intended for animals may not be suitable for use in homes due to potential toxicity and residue issues that could affect both humans and pets.



If you're looking to manage flea infestations inside your home, it's often best to use products specifically labeled for indoor use. These are formulated to be safer for household environments. Vacuuming regularly and washing your pet’s bedding in hot water can also greatly help to reduce fleas.



Watch for signs in your pet or family members, such as skin irritation, coughing, or sneezing, which may indicate a reaction to chemical exposure. If you notice any of these symptoms, you should consult a professional immediately.



For personalized advice, it would be great to book a video consult with one of our vets at Dial A Vet. They can help you choose the safest and most effective solution for your particular situation.

The advice here doesn't create a veterinarian-client-patient relationship, and our vets can't diagnose or treat your pet remotely. For emergencies or specific medical concerns, always contact your local veterinarian immediately. Your pet's health is unique, and decisions should only be made after consulting with a qualified professional.

It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.

A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
