Preventative care is a vital part of taking care of your furry friend. We recommend that our clients take a proactive approach to keep their pets healthy. One of the best ways to keep your pet healthy is through flea and tick prevention.
Prevention Methods
You can do a few things at home to help prevent fleas and ticks from infecting your pet. However, you may not have the tools and products to perform flea and tick prevention services that are available at our clinic. Our veterinarian can prescribe certain medications or shampoos that can help prevent fleas and ticks for your pet. We can also prescribe natural remedies, such as oatmeal baths or combing with oil, or changes to the lifestyle of your pet to help prevent fleas or ticks.
We offer a few main methods to prevent fleas and ticks. You can get a flea collar, which kills the insects on contact. We offer oral tablets for your pets that are given once a month. You can also try spot treatments, which are placed in between your pet’s shoulder blades once a month. In the case that your pet does get infected, we offer sprays to help manage it.
Regular grooming services, such as bathing, combing, and vacuuming, can play a big role in flea and tick prevention. Using the right grooming products can also reduce skin irritation, making your pet feel less itchy. We recommend you comb or brush your pet at least once a day. If your pet spends significant time out on the lawn, our veterinarian can recommend things you can do to make the lawn cleaner for your pet. We can also recommend certain flea trap products that help catch the fleas before they infect your pet.
Our clinic also offers vaccines to protect against parasites and worms.
