I was completely devastated when my vet told me that she had it. She's all better now though, after taking doxycycline, which I'm sure wasn't good for her either. I live in Pennsylvania and the ticks here are very bad. The deer ticks are just so tiny that you can't see them! I also want to start her on a raw diet. She's currently on Wellness, which is supposedly a very good brand right now, but all animals, people included, should be eating raw, fresh food. The new diet should improve her skin.
I am considering flea/tick products, are you saying she got Lyme while protected by frontline? Poor baby, how long did it take to treat it?
