The Deer ticks are thick right now.

 I just picked 7 stuck on ticks off my male Chessy, just from today.

 I would rally pay attention to this

 Check yourself along with the dog everytime you go out into the woods/field.

 A good spray tick repelant will be in order for anymore trips to the field.

 I have had a stuck Deer tick, as has Vickie and our son Charlie

My dog Luci has had a ton of ticks on her lately.....

She is not being treated for ticks right now....I need to do something right a way.

Please point me in the right direction. I would like to get this done within a couple days.

Thanks

I have heard that both frontline and K9Advantix (Available only from vets) are good products. If I have found alot of ticks I usually put the dogs on a dose of Doxycyclene(antibiotics) for 10 days. If you have any questions let me know
