Where do you people live where there aren't any ticks? I want to move there! We use frontline on our dogs to protect against them - unfortunately though it just kills the tick as soon as it bites - so you find dead ticks in your bed and furniture - pretty gross! But at least we don't have to pick them off them. Poor Cocoa still has scars from where we took ticks off her.

Oh, and deer ticks are the worst! They're so small, they look like a speck of dirt (very hard to find on furry dogs!), and they spred lyme disease - which Daphne got 2 years ago.

Grrr, I wish there was no such thing as ticks!
