Hi team, may I know what are the best ways to avoid ticks ? Can you suggest tablet for my dog who is 7 months old cocker spaniel ?. I usually spend time to check his entire body for any visible ticks but with his amount of fur , its getting very difficult to remove them. Though I thorougly checked, there could be flea or ticks. I spray natural anti tick sprays before going for walks Can I spray fipronil every two weeks ? I heard it can cause hairfall. So wondering if there is any tablet that I can give him. Kindly suggest

Hi madhu, it is very difficult to monitor tick infestation in heavy hair coat breeds. Have you noticed ticks on his body recently?
