"I sprayed this all around. Unfortunately some spilled on the floor on a paper towel I used that towel to wipe my kitty's body, Today I saw five fleas on his leg. I purchased another bottle to ensure I had enough. IT DOES NOT WORK AT ALL, One of my cats nearly died two weeks ago from the fleas. ..."
