Flea and tick infestations can be troublesome for dogs. Some common signs of flea infestation include excessive scratching, licking, and biting at the skin, red and irritated skin, hair loss, flea dirt (black specks) on the skin, and sometimes even seeing the fleas themselves. For tick infestations, signs may include finding ticks attached to your dog's skin, especially around the ears, head, neck, and feet, as well as symptoms like fever, lethargy, and in severe cases, anemia. It's crucial to regularly check your dog for these parasites, especially during warmer months or if they spend time outdoors.
