ticks...
Just went for a walk for an hour. Between the dog and me, I've counted 40 ticks so far. FORTY! And that's not including the ones my dog ate off of herself (she's so helpful). I've heard that Wells is the center of the tick problem...geez...this is out of control. This is the only thing I hate about living in Maine.

Re: ticks...
40!? Yikes that's crazy!
Finn (our pup) has had two since we moved up here, but we gave him Frontline a couple weeks ago and I haven't seen any since. I'm not as worried about him as I am about our cats - I pet/touch Finn all the time and would find a tick quickly, but if he brings them inside, they could get to our (indoor) cats and I might never find ticks on them.
Ugh now I feel all creepy-crawly.
Yes, we're religious about frontline. Frontline doesn't prevent the ticks from from crawling on our dog though. Wells is one of hte top areas in the state for ticks. lucky us.
For Digs, Frontline did nothing. We switched to Advantix and we haven't had as many problems. So, if one of them isn't working for your critters, think about switching around to find one that will.
Us too! Frontline wasn't doing anything and I think I read online somewhere that the ticks may be developing a resistance to it (I could be making that up though.) We switched to Advantix and it's much better. We still find a few on him each year, but it's not bad at all.
