| please help!!! found a tick on my Ceasar!!! We took our two babies yesterday for a walk on the trail around the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California which is 15 minutes drive away form my city. I really don't have my two almost two year olds on any flea & tick medication. With their yearly vaccine boosters I just don't want them to have too many unnatural things on their system/body. As I was doing their nightly coat combing & brushing I freaked out when I saw a tick on Ceasar's neck. I called my husband to get the tweezer and asked him to hold him so I could pull it out. I made sure by looking under a magnifying glass that I didn't leave the head and fangs under the skin. I cleaned it and I applied neosporin. Could somebody give me any more suggestions on what else to do to make sure that he would be alright. Now I am so worried!!! Please....Do you think he would be okay since I was able to get it out and it was not able to really stay on him for more than a day? I would really appreciate any help and suggestions. |
