It acts like a strong solvent, stripping the color from the leather. This is most commonly seen in the form of bleaching/smearing of the leather's color on the lower front or lower back and sides; places on your furniture where the pet would rub its neck shortly after the flea medication is applied.

The damage to the leather can be from a distance as well. If your pet vigorously shakes themselves in the vicinity of leather furniture, then a significant number of tiny flea medication droplets can be sprayed across the leather, each having its damaging affect. Every place that a droplet lands can turn into bleached spot. If you see it happen, and then try to wipe the spots, you'll end up creating a bigger mess by smearing the solvent component of the medication over a broader area.

Some high end detergent, like Tide, is chockablock with enzymes and quaternary amines designed specifically to deal with different kinds of stains. The cheaper the detergent, the less of these stain removers you get. The cheapest of detergents is little more than water, a bit of an alkaline compound and salt. However, this isn't to say that the cheap stuff doesn't get your clothes clean. If say, you didn't have a very active day and weren't sweating, then you probably don't need to do any more than run your clothes through a light wash with the cheap stuff. However, if you sweat all day and came into contact with oils, dirt and vegetation you are going to need a lot of different tools in you detergent to get your clothes clean. Basically you get what you pay for.
