These must be super ticks we have here in the Mid Atlantic.

That is bad. It's frustrating, especially because the stuff is so expensive.

We decided to give the Frontline one last shot, this time working harder to make sure we put enough on and that we don't wash it off. We are also going to stay away from the areas where we think we are picking them up.

Teddy also has a couple of mysterious bites, exactly like the ones he had last year. They go away quickly with a little antiseptic dabbed on them.
