When appling any topical tick or flea prevention follow your vet's or the package instructions. Make sure you part the the hair and apply to the exposed skin. Some will get on the fur, this is okay.
If the dog tick medication was placed on the cat's fur, immediately wash the cat with warm soapy water all over and prevent the cat from licking its fur. After this, rush the cat to the vet, carrying along the dog tick medicine that it received so that your vet can start treatment.
you can never really know, just look through your dogs fur and you can normally tell. If your dog does give the dog anti-tick medicine or if you don't want to pay for that you can bath your dog in Dawn soap.Hope it helped!
To apply tick medicine to your cat, carefully part the fur on the back of their neck to expose the skin. Place the appropriate dosage directly onto the skin, being sure to avoid the fur. Make sure to follow the specific instructions provided by the product manufacturer for best results.
Well, when my friends dog had ticks, his skin felt normal, it was just that the dog wouldn't stop itching his fur because of the rash.. hope this helps *** A tick will embed its head into the skin of the host (dog or cat), the body of the tick remains on the outside so it is visible to the naked eye. The skin remains to feel normal.
Fleas
Do NOT give your dog any kind of human medicine. It can hurt your dog. If you need to clip it`s fur use another person to help hold your dog still.
washing the dog can get away shedding hair and dirt from the second layer of fur and top layer of skin. a dog mostly cleans the top layer of fur so stuff under that can irritate them such as fleas, dirt, and shedding fur.
No
Well once a tick bites, it sucks all the blood and then buries itself into the fur. So one tick can only bite in one area because once it fills with blood, it can't fill up with more.
Dog fur, despite the theory of Papa John McHugh. Dog Fur sheds and Dog Hair does not.
