She lives in the NorthEast. She's fairly new to the area ... I suggested looking up which trees the ticks like and removing them from her property. I've never seen a bug like that before ... don't like the idea of them burrowing under the skin of the babies or the red poode. Do people routinely get fumigators in areas where there are ticks? Could the tick have been transported from another area?
Looks like a deer tick- I took one of my black lab's cheek this afternoon. Unfortunately, the stuff you run from nape to tail keeps their face a target.
We put stuff on the yard for ticks- but due to the palmetto bushes- they are almost impossible to eliminate. Someone may have brought her "friend" in on their pant leg, sock or shoelace. You would notice a tick that big on a baby long before it had a chance to burrow....
