Jut as an FYI, Frontline Plus doesn't necessarily repel ticks, so one could attach to your dogs, then the Frontline would make the tick fall off your dog, and onto your bed possibly... but it probably would die quickly anyways from the meds.

In the summer, we have to use K9 Advantix as Frontline just does not work in the hot months! Jackson for Lymes while on Frontline and was treated quickly with antibiotics, so he now tests negative for lymes.

I am just starting to see ticks here as well. I freak when one is on me or Rosie!! Frontline has never done much for us. We too use Advantix. Someone told me Frontline was good for fleas but Advantix works better for both fleas and ticks. Don't know how true it is but Advantix seems to work better for Rosie!
