The Risks Posed to Pets by Fleas And Ticks

The most typical problems that a pet will experience without tick prevention and flea treatment is itching associated with sores from bites, allergy dermatitis, and skin inflammation. These conditions can result in itching, hot spots, and hair loss. Another common issue that pets experience is tapeworms from flea bites. Without treatment, an infestation can result and cause numerous problems.

Ticks can cause many diseases including Lyme disease, which results in joint pain and lethargy. Rocky Mountain spotted fever can cause neurological damage, nausea, and severe skin lesions. Another tick concern is zoonosis that causes bloody diarrhea, sinus problems, and high fevers. Our veterinary care members in Beaumont are ready to ensure your pet is protected with effective flea treatment and tick prevention.
