We moved out to the country a couple of months ago and we have ticks really bad out here. What is the BEST thing we could use on the ferrets to repell ticks? Last week we brought home two puppies. They are 11 weeks old. They are Australian Cattle Dogs, also known as Blue Heelers. Does anyone have expenience with ferrets and this breed? We put Revolution flea and tick repellant on the puppies and four days later, I had to pull a tick off Sid's ear. The ticks are really, really bad out here! Thanks, Mary [Posted in FML issue 3036]
