Argggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh - just been grooming the little monster and he has picked up 3 ticks -never saw a single one before - they are GROSS.. He has been treated with frontline recently (a week ago - vet strength stuff, spray all over not the drops) - should we just leave them to drop off, use the tick extractor from the vet (a freebie when we joined the practice, but I am not confident I know how to use it - it is a bit of plastic with a slot in it) or do something else.... they look vile! like little lumps of bluetak.....
He is a year old, and has escaped all this tick stuff up til now - don't know where he picked them up either which is a worry!
