I Freaked Out - Tick I FREAKED OUT this morning.:eek: Sweet Pea was in the bed with me and i saw this dark thing on the inside of her ear. I thought hmmm she just got REALLY shaved for her summer cut, i didn't notice that HUGE scab. well i went to touch it and OMG..:eek: IT WAS A HUGE TICK. i pulled it off it fell on my bed and i grabbed it. now i know this may not be a BIG deal for some of you who live in woody type areas, but we live in surbs in sacramento, calif. i mean i have seen 1 tick my WHOLE life which was on my neck from camping when i was 10. the only place we have been is walking on the greenbelts in my neighborhood. my yorkies take sentinel for fleas but i guess it doesn't work on tick, i just bought advantage, but hadn't opened it. when i called the vet that doesn't work on ticks either, i have to exchange it for something else... NOW I CAN'T STOP ITCHING...:cool: |
I have heard that ticks are really going to be bad this year. |
holy crap, i would of just freaked out too.. now you have me itching.. really!!! |
I hate Ticks Ive had to remove about 5 since i got Miss Mini ..ewwww i usually call her Daddy for the Gross jobs .. |
Let me tell you, ticks! I have found 4 ticks on MYSELF in the past 2 days. We don't live anywhere in the woodsy area. We checked Tucker completly, no ticks on him anywhere. Rusty has none. I have no idea where they are coming from. It is soooooo icky! |
oh god help me if i see one.. i will move out of my house.... |
Lexi-Rae... LOL...I'M STILL ITCH-EE...:eek: I CAN'T GET THAT IMAGE OUT OF MY HEAD. A LITTLE CREATURE WITH LEGS, FUR, WITH A SHELL BODY.........EKKKKK |
Ticks are just disgusting! We've had a few on Jaxon and before we started using Advantix they were really hard to pull out. We got a tick remover that is used at medical clinics - works like a charm and doesn't hurt Jaxon. |
EEEEEWWWWW! :fainted: On Easter we went to my husbands family at "the farm". We walked on a 1/2 mile trail to the lake and I didn't realize that wood ticks were out yet. In the car on the way home I was petting Josie and felt all these lumps, I looked closer and realized they were moving! :eek: I was totaly freaked! I hate bugs! My husband was driving so there was nothing he could do. I found a plastic sandwich bag in the car and put it on like a glove and starting plucking! I pulled off 14 ticks! I was so disgusted that I got car sick and by the time we got home, my face was grey! LOL :tongue4: I'm never letting her walk through the woods again! Next time she gets put in her front carrier! |
I've found 3 on Baby this summer! We don't live right by the woods either. And guess where they were? In our backyard! :eek: And, you're right, Sentinal doesn't work on ticks. I put Baby on Frontline, but guess what? That doesn't repell them either! It's just supposed to kill them when they bite. Great, hugh? :( |
