Ticks and Frontline!!

[luvs2eat]

We use Frontline on Peaches, but... holy cow... are the ticks bad this year! We pick maybe 5-10 off of her a day! Most are dead... from the Frontline, I assume, but they're still THERE!! She's got like another 3 weeks before a new dose of Frontline! What do I do till then??

Here is an article about using Rose Geranium oil as a tick repellent. There are some other natural herbal remedies out there. http://www.care2.com/greenliving/tick-repellant.html

Ticks aren't too bad here, but our dogs don't run a lot in high grass or brush. Good luck!

Your vet can give your pet a tick (lyme) shot.

She's had the lyme shot... that prevents lyme disease. I'm trying to find a way so I don't have to pick 'em off of her all the time!
