For the ticks my groomer recomended using flea and tick collars (summer months when ticks are the worst) and I have not seen a tick after using the collars

I also used the dishwashing for bath time if I find any fleas... it kills the fleas (you can see them floating in the bathwater) but does not prevent new ones. I use borax --sprinkling in the cornners on such and it seam to help.. hope that helps!

On our outside dogs we use Preventic Tick collar. They are beagles. The ticks died that were on them and it says it works up to 3 months. But it does nothing for fleas.
