At Trinity Pet Hospital, our Laguna Hills vet is happy to offer flea and tick prevention services to suit your pet's needs. If not protected, indoor and outdoor pets alike can suffer the dangerous consequences of flea and tick bites, ranging from skin infections to serious medical conditions like Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain Fever. Fortunately, there are simple steps all pet owners can take to protect their pets.
The best way to protect a pet from fleas and ticks is to simply put them on a preventative medicine, which we offer here in our office. Flea and tick preventatives come in a variety of forms to suit your pet's needs and lifestyle. Some are given in once-a-month pill form, whereas others may be applied directly to the fur. Flea and tick collars can also be effective in protecting your pet. If you're not sure of the best option for you and your pet, our veterinary team would be happy to make a recommendation for you.
We highly recommend preventatives even for strictly indoor pets, as it is possible to track in fleas and ticks from the outdoors, where they can otherwise spread to your pet if unprotected. When it comes to fleas and ticks, it's always better to be safe than sorry.
Take measures to protect your pet year-round from fleas and ticks, and be sure to schedule a Laguna Hills veterinary care appointment if your pet is due for an annual exam or shows signs of flea or tick bites. You can reach Trinity Pet Hospital by giving us a call at (949) 768-1314.
