Yes, they do, I had one today. I could only tell because, when I moved the skin just right, I could see something black in the ultra tiny hole. The area around the hole also looked dark (maybe the tick or blood) and was sore.

A tick will go in only as far as its mouth-parts are long. That is, it doesn't go in very far. If you pull the tick off and see black, that is mouth-parts left in your skin.
