the strongest thing i've found is the powder. also, make sure you dust the ground they are on. ticks and fleas live on the ground and jump onto passing animals and humans. don't be cheap with the powder, either. imho, you should use the entire can right away on them and the surrounding area, and a second can for the days after that. it took us around a week of heavy dusting to handle a bad infestation, and then we had to keep doing it on a weekly basis for a month for it to finally go away.

Well they certainly need treatment by a vet for starters. Ticks attach themselves to the animals body and suck their blood and they then look bigger. You cant just pull a tick off an animal's body because if you leave the teeth there they grow another body, it has to be done by a vet. Also from the vet you can get a little file of liquid that you break and put between their shoulder blades, it goes into their bloodstream and when they are bitten the lice dies straight away. I really think though that you need to be taking them to a vet. Good luck.

Well start charging rent from the lice and ticks. After all, the dogs are your property. And make the rent higher, so the lice and ticks can't pay. Then they will have to leave.
