Do ticks still jump on dogs when they've already been treated?
A tick might jump on the dog, even though the dog has been treated with a monthly Flea & tick preventative, but it will not stay on there as it will die in a few hours or sooner. A tick has to bite/suck the blood out of the dog for at least 12 hours before it can pass on the diseases it carries so the Preventative takes care of that, it kills the tick before it can pass anything on and then the tick just drops off.
How can you tell if your cat has lyme disease?
If the surrounding area is swollen or red, the dog may have an infection from the tick bite, but if the skin looks and feels normal around where the tick was removed, there shouldn't be any connection to the tick bite. Also, make sure you removed all of the tick's head and mandibles from the bite spot, as this could keep the wound open allowing infections to enter. Always see a vet for a final answer.
