i found an article from Whole Dog Journal in February 2002, titled Are "Spot On" Flea Killers Safe? and subtitled "Absolutely not, says our author, depsite what the commercials say." It's a long well researched and well-presented article. It scares me so much, i think i'm about to go try to wash the stuff off.
Here is the article:

The following month they have a companion article titled "Eliminate Fleas Without Poisons," I haven't read it yet. This is what i wanted to do, but i don't like trying things when i don't know what i'm doing--i wish there were advisors you could go to who are experienced with these things and could guide you through it.

The first article described symptoms like Zack was having. I know it could be from something else, but it just worsened my anxiety to read the article, from a highly respected journal, well researched and well presented. It was awful reading about all the animals they kill during their testing of these products, as they try to find out what the toxic dosages are.
