If you have done this already you need to get the pup to the vet IMMEDIATELY, they can overdose on the flea medication.

There are products available for pups as young as 6 weeks but you have to read the label CAREFULLY.

To answer your question specifically as to what can happen: dizziness, vomiting, hotspots, chemical burns, nerve damage, hormonal imbalances, early death, immediate death.

See why you should be at the vet instead of on the computer? Bye.
