Either way, you are at the right spot: here we are going to list home remedies for ticks on dogs that can help you get rid of those parasites easily and at home.
Natural Remedy For Dogs Ticks And Fleas
You need to give your dog a bath.
- Use a mild dog shampoo to bathe your dog. The shampoo should be labeled as tearless, hypoallergenic and designed for dogs with sensitive skin (or at least not irritate their eyes).
- Rinse well with warm water, then again with cool water to close the pores and prevent drying out the skin (which could lead to itching).
- Dry your dog thoroughly with a towel until no more water can be squeezed from his fur. Do not use a blow dryer on him; this will only irritate his skin further! If you have any questions about drying methods or recommendations for different breeds of dogs, consult your veterinarian before bathing them in hot weather or during other extreme conditions such as rainstorms or snowstorms where temperatures outside may exceed 70 degrees Fahrenheit/21 Celsius depending on where you live within North America (typically around 40 degrees Fahrenheit/4 Celsius indoors though).
After the bath, dry your dog with a towel.
After the bath, dry your dog with a towel. This can be done by hand or with a hair dryer if you want to go that route. If you decide to use a towel, make sure to start from the head and work your way down towards the tail. Towel drying can also help remove any loose ticks or fleas that are still on your dog’s fur after bathing him/her.
Spray your dog#x27;s fur with lemon spray.
Spray your dog’s fur with lemon spray.
Prepare a 50-50 mixture of lemon juice and water, then let the solution soak into your dog’s fur for about 10 minutes. It is best to do this outside, as the smell can be overpowering. If you don’t have a spray bottle at home, put some into a plastic bag and squeeze it over your dog’s coat; just make sure that it doesn’t get in his eyes!
Dip the comb into the lemon water and comb through your dogs fur.
Dip the comb into the lemon water and comb through your dogs fur. Do not be alarmed if you see fleas come off on the comb. They are dead, but they are still able to jump away from you and get lost in your dog’s fur again. Several times may be necessary before you no longer see any fleas on your dog’s coat or on the comb.
Repeat this process until you have removed all of the fleas and ticks.
Repeat this process until you have removed all of the fleas and ticks. It’s important to be thorough in your search for ticks, as some tick species can carry infectious diseases such as Lyme disease or Rocky Mountain spotted fever.
Be sure to check any skin folds on your dog and around their tail area, which are often difficult spots for them to groom themselves. Some ticks will also travel up into their ears and mouth or down into their paws if they find it difficult to get into these areas.
