Understanding the Risks

Fleas and ticks are more than nuisances; they are carriers of diseases that can seriously affect your pet’s health. Fleas can transmit tapeworms, hemobartonella (a blood parasite), plague, and other illnesses, while ticks are known to carry Lyme disease and viruses and can cause anemia and fatigue in pets. Preventing infestations is crucial to avoid the associated health risks and the hassle of lengthy and costly treatments.
