What to do with flea2007-11-25 2:53:16

the tick and flea on his face and inside ear and on eyes, how to remove them? i washed his body, but someone told me not to wash face of dog...

Answers:

you need to buy Frontline from your vet/petstore and treat your dog every single month of his life for ticks and fleas.

flea powder and collars do not kill ticks and they do not kill flea eggs.

ticks can kill a dog. Fleas invite infection and disease which can kill a dog.

not treating them is tantamount to neglect.

Start a flea circus. lol eucalyptus wool wash works , or tea tree soap sometimes. I would wash his face just try not get water in his ears or eyes.

Don't wash his face. Do the rest of his body with a good washing the flea power and flea collar on his neck the fleas will leave. Any ticks on his head cover with petroleum jelly they will back out then remove them

You need to go and buy Revolution or Frontline, it's applied to the neck area and kills ticks/fleas for upto a month at a time, if he has a bad case it might have to be applied more often until under control. Don't forget to treat all his sleeping areas with Flea bombs/spray or he will just keep getting re-infested.

The ticks you can pull out. You can use a regular blunt tweezer or get a special tweezer at the pet store. There are a lot of links online of how to remove ticks, I've added one below.
