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:)
