| Ticks!!!! I wish they had a vomiting smilie.. that's how much I DISLIKE ticks. Well - we just moved to North Carolina and Mickey brought a tick in! YUCK YUCK YUCK! The tick actually ended up on me and the dogs are now tick-free. They are on frontline. What works for you? Do I have to use multiple products?? Because I will - ticks are worse than spiders and snakes for me!! I use to use Revolution, but kept finding ticks on them when we were in Oklahoma. The Revolution company was SUPER nice to work with in refunding ALL of the money the past year!! If it worked on my boys - they would be my company of choice. Now it appears the frontline isn't working. HELP - I feel like ticks are EVERYWHERE (I only found one, but still....). What do you use? How can I get rid of them for good!?!?! |

| I'm interested in hearing the responses to this as I'm getting ready to move to NC and was wondering about ticks myself... |

| I know how you feel! There was a case of LICE at our daycare once, I burred both by boys heads; my head itched constantly and I combed it every day for about three months with that tiny lice comb, looking at the teeth with every swipe. Same when a flea jumped on me once. We just had ChemLawn do their flea, tick and fireant treatment. But I haven't actually seen a tick or flea in a couple of years. We are just having an extremely warm winter. I can't stand the though of bugs touching me.

| Have you tried K9 Advantix? That's what my parents use on their beagle when they go up north (yes, I'm from Wisconsin, that's what we do: go "up north"). There's TONS of mosquitos, fleas and ticks up in the woods and it seems to work pretty well for them..... |
