For the Love of Pets: Best to use NextGard and frontline Plus

Pets are highly susceptible to tick bites and tickborne diseases. Vaccines are not available for most tick-borne conditions that pets can get, and they do not keep them from bringing ticks into your home.

It is essential to use a tick preventive product on your pet for these reasons.

Tick bites on pets may be hard to detect.

Unfortunately, signs of tick-borne disease may not appear for 7-21 days or longer after a tick bite.
You need to watch your pet closely for changes in behaviour or appetite if you suspect that a tick has bitten your pet.
