I have two dogs, a long haired and a short haired, I would like some advice on how to get rid of and prevent ticks both on my dogs and in my yard. My neighbor has dogs and doesn't treat for fleas or ticks and my pets are suffering.

Thank you,
Blake

Our dogs are also suffering from the same thing. We have neighbors on both sides of us that have dogs and our dogs are the ones getting the problems.

I think it depends on the breed and color of dog. Mine is very sensitive to SMELL... Advantix I was told by our vet will make a white dog ITCH. Who knows maybe frontline and the others have the same effect. It's all chemicals. Good points and bad points.

Frontline Plus works great! Also kills ticks that spread lyme disease.

Try looking on this site for natural remedies. I don't have the problem so I don't remember. Your neighbors are cruel to allow their dogs to be miserable. They can also get very sick from not being treated.

Hi Blake,

Put them on Frontline (or anything else recommended by your Vet) asap. They will be tick and flea free.
