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.

How do you cure tick bites?
well, when a tick is on your skin, you immediately take a needle and light it with a match, then burn the tick/or use nail polish. If the tick has been in you for a day or so, it CAN'T back out. It has already glued its head into your skin. Burning it or smothering it may kill it, but won't remove it. You will be left with a dead tick barfing into your flesh. Use a tick remover or grasp it below the body at skin level and pull it off. The head will come out like a splinter does in a couple of days.

If it is removed improperly, yes it can get "stuck" or left behind. Contact your local vet if you are unsure as to how to remove the tick.
When you get bite from the tick?
yes you can get bitten. *brief summary of a personal occasion*... ticks may borough deep into the skin, so much so that it can look like a skin mark or a simple mole. my brother found one on his upper back today, and a PRETTY DECENT size, too. it embedded itself so far into the skin that only the upper back of the tick was showing as a zit sized skin mark( even so the tick was maybe 4-6mm THATS BIG! ), no legs visible. we got tweezers, band-aids, cotton, alcohol, a magnifier and a locking empty pill container. *note: TICKS CAN LIVE IN RUBBING ALCOHOL! , also the American dog tick and deer tick get confused even by pros, so don't freak if it looks like a deer tick. PS, it was only the DOG tick NOT THE DEER TICK:)

Do you have to burn ticks to get them off of you?
no. you can pull them off but it will hurt like heck!!!!! Don't let the tick get embedded into your skin. It could have lyme disease! Put vaseline jelly on the body of the tick, it will let go.
