oh I do use Frontline Plus.... it's supposed to repel ticks...
Im just soooo grossed out by them, but Im also worried about my dogs. they do not get the Lymes vaccination and I don't want them to, but I'm thinking of considering it at this point. I mean the ticks are just terrible!

Dex had Lyme's disease (well tested positive) last year and he was on meds for a month. I should have Fletch tested now and make sure he is ok. My poor babies! Maybe I'll switch to Advantix.
Someone mentioned Brewer's yeast sprinkled on their food and Ive heard something about garlic. I used to buy these treats for them called Garlic bagels from Solid Gold. They liked them and I remember saying to my husband that they were not getting ticks while on them.
uuggghh it's just sooo gross!
