How to Protect my Dog from Fleas and Ticks

The removal of fleas and ticks from your dog's coat can be a tedious operation. Getting rid of a tick once it has attached itself to your pet can be quite challenging. If not done correctly, it can lead to infections and diseases. Prevention is always better than cure when it comes to keeping your dog free of fleas and ticks. A lot of different solutions can be tried to keep fleas and ticks away.

Keep Your House Clean

Flea eggs can survive the winter months in your house, and once they are laid throughout the house, they can grow by 100 eggs per day. It is important to keep your home clean by routinely cleaning your pet's bedding as well as other areas of your house, such as furnishings, curtains, and carpets. It will prevent flea eggs from hatching and causing your family serious problems.  Do not forget to dispose of vacuum bags efficiently, since flea eggs can continue to hatch and multiply, even after they have been vacuumed.

Check Your Pet Regularly for Ticks

Be careful to check your pet's skin, ears, and the region around their legs for ticks if you've taken them into an area where ticks are prevalent. Ticks prefer warm, moist conditions and are more likely to bite in locations with dense undergrowth, tall grasses, and decaying leaves. In order to prevent diseases like Lyme disease from spreading to your pet, you must find and remove ticks as soon as possible. Ticks only take 24 hours to transmit diseases to your pet. Whenever you take your pet on a prolonged outing through forest areas or when she plays outside, check her for parasites. If you realise your dog has been bitten by a tick, keep an eye out for any behavioural changes like lethargy, appetite loss, or limping.

Take Your Dog to Vet for Timely Check-ups

Routine wellness exams are the greatest method to locate a parasite prevention programme that works and, if your pet is already taking medicine, assess the effectiveness of their current prevention programme. We advise making an appointment with a veterinarian right soon if your pet is exhibiting signs of parasites, such as scratching from fleas, or if you frequently detect ticks on your pet.
