Seresto is a type of flea and tick collar and, as with any product applied directly onto the skin of an animal, there can be potential side effects for some dogs. These include skin irritation or inflammation at the site where the collar is worn. It is also possible for a dog to experience an allergic reaction due to the active ingredient in Seresto collars which is imidacloprid. If your pet displays any symptoms such as itchiness or hives after wearing a Seresto collar then you should seek veterinary advice as this may indicate that he/she is having an allergic reaction. Your veterinarian will be able to help determine if an allergy testing kit would be beneficial or if your pet needs an alternative form of flea prevention or treatment.
