Thousands of packages of synthetic marijuana are off store shelves.
ABC agents raided "Pleasures" in Huntsville and other stores in the Valley, confiscating the banned drugs.
This comes after Governor Bentley signed an executive order Friday banning the sale of synthetic marijuana.
Since then, nearly $4 million worth of the drug has been pulled from store shelves across the state.
Anyone caught with synthetic marijuana after October 24th will face felony charges.
But one place that's next to impossible for agents to raid is the internet.
It may be the next outlet for folks who are trying to get their hands on this stuff.
The internet seems to be a pretty good drug dealer if that's what you want to use you it for.
You'd be surprised how easy it was to find folks selling this synthetic marijuana, and this state crackdown maybe a losing battle.
It may be getting pulled off store shelves, but synthetic marijuana is not hard to find.
Just by going to the commonly used website Amazon.com, we typed in "herbal incense," another name for this so called fake pot goes by, and more than a thousand listings showed up - some even fall under the categories of home and kitchen and industrial and scientific.
It's all over the site, and it seems like there's nothing stopping anyone in the state from getting it.
So how do you enforce this?
WAFF 48 News contacted the District Attorney Association for answers.
Drug agents around the state are already setting up buys online for deliveries to come in.
We were told even though you can order it legally, once it is delivered, you can be arrested and also the host who sold it.
The crimes fall under felony charges for possession and distribution.
Though agents do admit, internet-based sales are one factor state lawmakers may not have considered, but the Partnership for a Drug-Free Community has.
"No matter how we can enforce, those kids can get online and still buy it and that's a big, big problem," said Deborah Soule, executive director of the Partnership for Drug-Free Community.
Soule said the organization is passionate about two things: preventing and decreasing substance abuse.
She said the first line of defense should not fall on law enforcement.
"Parents are the first line of defense; they are the ones that have to be aware of what's out there," she said.
Amazon's website has disclaimers removing them from being liable for pretty much anything being sold on the site.
However, we wanted to know specifically about the spices and potpourri being sold on the site, so we contacted Amazon and are still waiting for a response.
We'll stay on top of this and update you as soon as we hear back from them.
