Brake fluid leak after brake flush at dealership

So I got new pads and rotors installed all the way around and also decided to get a brake fluid flush. The day after I got the car back there was no sign of any leaks. I didn't drive the car for a few days after that and I noticed some brake fluid on the ground around the front left tire. Took it back to the dealership and they couldn't find any leaks. And i havent seen no new brake fluid on the ground since. They said it may just be residue from the flush. Is this normal?

maybe they spilled some brake fluid an it wound up on a lower control arm and dripped off on your floor? i would monitor the fluid level and keep an eye out on the floor until i was sure it wasnt leaking.

Brake fluid damages paint quickly. A good shop wouldn't have any fluid spilled on the car when finished that wasn't cleaned up. They may have left a bleeder slightly loose.
