Anything can trigger seizures in any given pet. Or, it could be purely coincidence. If she were mine, I would stop all flea/tick meds for 30 days minimum and put her back on her regular food..and wait and see. I personally will not use anything but frontline for fleas and ticks(why feed them a bug killer that then circulates through the system to get to where it needs to be??) and I used one of the “ad” brands(can’t remember if advantix or advantage II) and my epileptic had a horrible time with anesthesia. Never again.

If she continues to seize on a regular basis, you will need to start her on meds for epilepsy. My girl is on zonisimide and phenobarb at this time and it controls the seizures 99 percent of the time.
