Home remedies for dogs: flea and tick control

by June

I found that Avon's Skin So Soft works well to moisturize dry skin and rid the dog of unwanted fleas.
Olive oil helps the tick back out of the sucking hole, then die. Use a Qtip, put olive oil on it, smear it all over the tick. They breathe through their skin, this causes them to die from lack of air. It might take a day or 2 but is well worth waiting for results.
