No. However, while some say it will attempt to find a new host, or regrow its necessary organs, others say it becomes dead, because it has already lost its necessary organs to survive.

No.Basically if you remove its body it will die.However if the tick is in the skin its head/mouth will still be in place & must be removed Asap to prevent infection.

How long can bed bugs live in your clothes?

I don't believe that a tick could, or even would want to live in clothing. A tick is like a parasite, it travels from one body to the next, feeding off of the host. If a tick were on your clothing however, when you put it on it will most likely crawl onto you and may dig in to your body if you don't feel it beforehand. Make sure you check yourself regularly for ticks if you have found them in the past.
