I didn't even think about the ants bothering Sugar. Just last week my daughter was playing in the yard and she started screaming that ants were biting her. I ran outside and she had ants (just the little black yard ants) crawling on her legs, up her shorts, in her shirt, in her hair...they were biting her and I had to pick them all off. She complained about the bites hurting for a couple of hours after that. I was freaking out, we've lived in this house 5 years (in this area for 11 years) and I've never seen anything like it before. I didn't even think to give her Benadryl...I bet that would have helped the stinging.
I'll have to call my vet and see how much Benadryl my 10 lb Yorkie should get in case she gets into the ants or in case of bee stings.
Thanks for the warning on this one. How scary! I'm glad your baby is okay.
