1-42479146 - The reporter indicated that she, her husband and her two cats were exposed to an insecticide containing the active ingredient permethrin. The reporter stated that a PCO applied the product inside the apartment on the day of initial contact while her husband was sleeping in a bedroom in the apartment and while her cats were wondering around in the treated rooms. The reporters husband woke-up while the PCO was in the apartment and when the husband opened the bedroom door the PCO got frightened and ran away. Per the reporter the PCO had sprayed all over the apartment including in the kitchen on their food and dishes. The reporter states that both of her cats; a Maine coon (Subform III #1) and a Norwegian Forest cat (Subform III #2) became lethargic, developed tremors and had breathing difficulties after the exposure. The cats were brought to the veterinarian where they were bathed and treated with methocarbamol and at the time of the call they were doing a little better. The reporter (Subform II #1) and her husband (Subform II #2) had irritated eyes and throat and initially her husband had difficulty breathing but that was better at the time of the call. Her husband also vomited and he developed hives which were still an issue at the time of the call. On follow-up call, ten days later, the reporter indicated that her throat was still sore and she was worried her cats also had sore throats because they were not drinking water like they used to. The reporter also indicated that the cats had been snoring sometimes since the exposure. The reporters husband still had hives that intermittently flared up. He was taking Benadryl, which helped, but the hives keep coming back. No additional information is available.
