It worried me that the spot was so red before I even pulled the tick off.
You do know Frontline Plus is not a repellent right? For fleas & ticks it takes a couple minutes sometimes a bite before the frontline kills them...after applying it I talked to the vet a couple weeks later and was explaining how it wasn't working because I saw a huge flea on my dog and had to have this explained to me...I have seen a tick fall off dead and dehydrated because of it...but that was later.
