Hound dog
Nana's are Beautiful
It was a scorcher this evening. Perfect time to wash the dogs. They've needed it for some time now, but either the temp dropped too low or it would rain us out.
(In winter they're scrubbed in the shower, but in summer I can't take all that hair ugh)
So we're soaping Molly down with flea soap in the little plastic pool. husband has got to get to those weeds in the back yard again as the poor baby is chewing herself again......
Get to her head, go to do her ears........And there is a tick on the inside, not down in the canal, but on the inside part of the ear. So, I grab the bottle of flea soap and read it to make sure it also kills ticks. Yep. So I stick a big gob of pure soap right on that tick. That ear was left until after the second lathering and rinsing to be rinsed. (Molly loves baths and is cooperative)
I'm waiting for her to dry before applying the Frontline Plus.
My question.......How long is it gonna take this stuff to kill that tick?
Because having it in the house bothers me even if it's attached to her ear. Ewwwwwwwww.
It didn't appear all the way embedded. Nichole wanted me to remove it with tweezers. And I could've removed it, but would've done so with very tiny needle nose pliers. (better grip) But I'm afraid it will leave part in her and I don't want her getting sick from it.
But I don't want it jumping onto one of us or Bruce either. (I've still got to go get Bruce's flea stuff)
