Answer 1

Call poison control and find out.  There may be times when you think everything is fine and then later on you find out if you had acted sooner, you could have saved him.  I am just thinking about the father who was taking care of his twins while mom was out.  One of the twins drank some baby oil.  He seemed okay, but later that night ended up dying in the hospital because the oil got into his lungs and he died.

Answer 2

If you are so concerned why are you wasting time on Yahoo Answers instead of calling Poison Control?

Answer 3

i don't know much about it but i know if a child starts forming bubbles in his mouth then yes he has but it sounds as if only a little bit got in his mouth so it doesn't sound bad i don't think u would've done it on purpose accidents happen but if not alot got in then there is nothing to worry about. but read on the bottle what it says if it is swallowed. hope this is of help

Answer 4

well i would of rang the doctor to be honest but normally when it's child safe they don't really put much in as they know young children l**k and bite there arms

Answer 5

OK-- READ THE LABEL OF THE BUGSPRAY AND SEE IF IT IS POISONOUS...YEAH YOU SHOULD CONTACT POISON CONTROL CENTER TOO.GOOD LUCK!
