I know some of us don't like using chemicals on our furbabies....this is an alternative to chemicals....I use peppermint mixed with water for fleas...this solution helps with ticks as well..

Lemongrass
Deters fleas and especially tick. According to Ohio State University. Lemongrass oil contains a pleasing citrus scent that is useful in controlling oily scalps and skin conditions, making it suitable for use on dogs with skin conditions in lotion, spray, soap and shampoo formulas.
