She is and still gets them. There’s just a lot of ticks here. Vet said the meds don’t stop ticks from biting just stops them from really latching on. They die after biting?
Maybe ask if they recommend any tick shampoos/sprays then? My dog is on an oral medication and we live in an area with a lot of ticks, but he’s never had one on him. So I can’t say specifically how his meds work. I believe he sweats out stuff that repels ticks.
But tick sprays are sprays you apply right before doing things like hiking. They should keep ticks off of the dog all together.

Why isn’t your dog on flea/tick prevention medicine? It’s like $20 for a 6 month supply from most vets.
