No.


Do you worm or de flea your cat first?

It really depends on how often you use flea or worming treatment on your cat. Generally speaking, you only need to worm twice a year if it is an adult cat, and some flea treatments advise to use their treatments once a month, although some owners will only use flea treatments once every couple of months. Essentially, it doesn't really matter what treatment you use first on your cat.

Can a human get sick from dog fleas?

Nope. All fleas are the same. There's no human flea, cat flea, dog flea, or any certain flea. They're on everything. A human could possibly get sick if they had a reaction to a flea bite (unlikely), but flea bites only itch. Trust me, I know. I attract fleas *and* mosquitoes, and all those other horrible things.


Can a smaller cat get sick and die from using advantage flea and tick treatment meant for larger cats but you don't use all of the application?

Yes! These spot on flea treatments are precisely measured to the proper dosages by the company that makes them. In other words, if you do not carefully dose the proper amount, you can very well make your cat sick and she could, in fact, die. If you notice any adverse symptoms after applying a flea treatment to your cat (vomiting, pale nose/gums, shaking, crying, lethargy, difficulty standing up, or ANYTHING out of the ordinary) call a vet right away. If your vet instructed you to split the dosage package and you very carefully measure out the amount your vet told you with a syringe or medicine dropper, that could be okay. But eyeballing it yourself can have very bad consequences.
