There are a lot of misunderstandings about this issue. First, you're probably thinking of the Bufo toads. There is at least one species of toad (Bufo alvarius) that produces venom which contains 5-MeO-DMT. much debate about this and other species of toad that have venom which contains bufotenin. Most, if not all, analyses of toad venom have shown only traces of bufotenin. Bufotenin is likely active at a similar range of doses to 5-MeO-DMT insufflated, smoked, and oral use.
But, you asked about frogs. The frog is used by Peruvian Indians to produce a toxic stupor prior to going hunting. It is rubbed into burns on the flesh--it contains VERY toxic chemicals called batrachotoxins; don't try this one at home. Chemists have extracted epibatidine from this frog, and it at one point showed promise as a "non-addicting" analgesic, but the research was abandoned for reasons I don't remember.
sorry for rambling
