thanks for the advice.
i am quite sure the head was removed. the area is clean and there is a normal looking scab without any redness around it.
i will check in with my vet tomorrow.
i called a covering vet this weekend and they just wanted me to bring him in - which i don't think is necessary.
i am thinking that i will have him tested in the next few weeks. i know that the lyme titer in humans doesn't elevate right away. so i may have to wait.

i am inclined not to try to clean the scab off since it looks so normal and healthy. also the area is NOT bothering him at all.

thoughts?
