I should have known better…  It appears I transported a ton of fleas & ticks from GA- do not alert the authorities.  After being bit by a bunch of arachnids (likely ticks) & removing many from the BONGO & TiKi-TiKa, i found some FIPRONIL in here, gave it to these kids to find it to not only NOT work, but BONGO started losing hair, lethargic, generally unhappy-
FLEAS still everywhere on BONGO until i gave him the safer solution Nitenpyram as i clean all the bedding & area.
Dead fleas & a happy cat.  stay away from Fipronil i would recommend-///
