Fleas and Tick

Fleas and ticks are tiny parasitic insects that lay eggs on dogs and feed on their blood. They attach themselves to the dog’s skin, bite it with their sharp teeth, and feed on the dog’s blood. The saliva of these insects causes itching, redness, scabs, sensitivity, and skin infections in dogs. Additionally, fleas and ticks can transmit bloodborne diseases to dogs. Furthermore, fleas and ticks contain larvae of a tapeworm known as Dipylidium caninum. When fleas and ticks attach to a dog’s skin and feed on its blood, the area where they attach becomes intensely itchy, leading dogs to scratch the affected skin and ingest the fleas and ticks. Tapeworm larvae attach themselves to the walls of the dog’s intestines, transforming into tapeworms and feeding on the dog’s internal food.

Fleas and ticks hide among animal fur, on grass, in carpets, and virtually anywhere, laying their eggs. These parasites thrive in warm and temperate climates. They are pests that need to be eliminated because they cause significant harm to dogs and other domestic animals and reproduce rapidly. The most effective way to combat fleas and ticks is through continuous cleaning of the dog’s living space and washing the dogs with anti-flea and tick shampoos. But what should you do once your dogs are infested with fleas and ticks?

Types of Medications and Treatments for Fleas and Tick in Dogs

There is a wide variety of medications and treatments available for combating fleas and ticks at Canine Dog online pharmacy, to help protect your precious pets. To provide you with more information and ensure you use flea and tick treatments correctly for the best results, we have categorized flea and tick medicine into two main types: oral treatments and topical treatments. Let’s explore them further.

dog flea and tick oral medication

One of the meds used to treat fleas and ticks in dogs is oral flea and tick medication. Oral medications come in the form of pills, chewables, and liquids. These medications are available with a veterinarian’s prescription, and when dogs ingest them, the anti-flea and tick ingredients are absorbed into their bloodstream. As soon as the fleas bite the dog and ingest its blood, they are killed. This treatment is effective against adult fleas and ticks that are attached to the dog’s skin and feed on its blood but cannot combat flea and tick eggs or larvae.

Topical Flea and Tick Treatment for Dogs

Topical flea and tick treatment medications are available as drops, sprays, powders, and shampoos and are sold at Canine Dog Pharmacy. According to the veterinarian’s instructions, you should spread these medications to the dog’s skin and specific areas. Topical treatments kill fleas and ticks instantly and eliminate their eggs and larvae. Additionally, they absorb into the dog’s bloodstream through the skin, working similarly to oral treatments.
