One of my rotten kids ( :) ) is always scratching her left ear more than any other part of her body. A couple of times per year, she scratches enough to cause bleeding in that ear. I've taken her to the vet, who treated her for ear mites. She's at it again, and I think it is ticks. I found a small one behind her ear, and another below her ear. I'm wondering if any found their way into her ear canal. Anyway, are there any home remedies I can try (at least, on the external ticks) to get rid of them? I've inspected the other three, and haven't found any other ticks.... Craig and Sam, Honey, Toni, and Fuzz (the ticked ferret) [Posted in FML issue 1374]
