0.5cc's is about 10 drops, or about five times more than one is supposed to
use.  I have never had a flea problem so don't have practical experience,
but it is my understanding that one is supposed to use the cat version and
only two drops between the shoulder blades.  I don't know what the safety
margin is, but that stuff is expensive and it must be costing you a lot
more than you need to spend.
 
For the ferrets,
Mike
