HI, Our Little Girl, who was gone for two days, showed up at the front door and scratched to get in the same time I was making more "LOST" posters to hang up!!! She looks like she had a frightening two days...but no bite marks and no cuts! BUT she is covered with cockleburs and TICKS!!! It is a holiday weekend and no vets open... how do we get rid of those ticks? We are keeping her away from the other two ferrets... and have gotten 2 ticks off but there are many more! Have never used Frontline because we didn't like the idea of spraying stuff on them that they could lick off -- the vet even was against it! Should we try and will it kill the ticks or just prevent them? Thanks for any quick help! Pam [Posted in FML issue 3065]
