Spring is just around the corner, bringing gorgeous warm weather, as well as pesky fleas and ticks. Once the warm days arrive, flea eggs will begin to hatch, which can quickly become a huge problem as they multiply and infest your dog or cat. It is always easier to prevent and control fleas and ticks, rather than waiting until there is a problem and having to treat and fight to get rid of them.
Spring is just around the corner, and it couldn't come fast enough for me. My husband, Jeremy, and I are looking forward to spending many hours outside with our dogs, Petey and Harley. Now, if you are a dog owner, you know spring brings warm weather, new flowers, and, regrettably, flea and tick season.
With warmer weather comes worries about fleas and ticks for your pets. Dogs and cats can contract tapeworms from fleas, as well as be made miserable, and even ill. Ticks can spread Lyme disease to your dog, or even to you!
In order to keep fleas and ticks away from your dog, you need to treat your dog, yard, and home all at once. Treating only one or two areas will allow fleas to thrive in the untreated parts, re-infesting your dog.
