My 7 year old poodle had a reaction, like racey, hyper etc to Frontline topical. Do you think Bravecto would be safe?

I think tablets work better than topical and seem to have less reactions in my experience. Topciald can be irritating and burn the area where applied which can cause over stimulation such as you described With tablets, the most common side effect is vomiting and is minimal with that medication. I would recommend trying that instead
