Fleas and ticks are more than just a seasonal nuisance. They can pose serious health risks to both pets and people. 🐾
Infestations can lead to:
• Severe itching, allergies, and painful skin infections
• Hair loss and “hot spots” from constant scratching
• Anemia and weakness, especially in puppies, kittens, and small pets
• Transmission of serious diseases such as Lyme disease, anaplasmosis, and ehrlichiosis
• Tapeworm infections from ingesting fleas during grooming
What many people don’t realize is that fleas can also infest your home, bedding, carpets, and furniture, making them difficult (and expensive) to eliminate once established.
The good news? Prevention is far easier, safer, and more affordable than treating a full infestation.
Protect what you love with year-round flea & tick prevention. 💚
If you have questions about the best prevention options for your pet, our team at Boundary Animal Hospital is always happy to help.
