Put a small drop of olive oil on the tics; the tics will pull out and die and the oil won't harm your pet. Best thing is to use a tick pick which you can by from a vet or pet shop. Even if a tick is dead when you remove it there can still be infected liquids in the tick which can be passed into the dog if the tick is squeezed when removing. A vet will also remove a tick for you.

You could either use a lighter and burn the butt end of the tick and it would die and you could pull it out or...and this is the proper and safer way, you could take alcohol and poor it on the spot where the tick is and the tick will start crawling back out of the skin due to suffercation. Then you just burn him...when he pops you know he's dead.
