Parasite prevention is an essential component of pet care. Your Etobicoke veterinarian is here to offer tips to keep your pet safe from these invaders. We also offer parasite prevention products that will shield your pet and your home from an infestation.
Fleas tend to be transmitted from one pet to another, while ticks are most often picked up outdoors in tall grass and cool, shaded, wooded areas.
There are some specific things pet owners can do to protect their pets from fleas and ticks, including:
It is very important to use the right type of flea and tick repellent for your dog or cat. These products are customized and specialized for animal type and size.
