Hello Esta,
You can purchase tick weed at all natural health store or in natural pet
food store. Tickweed comes in a spray bottle and refillable bottles
which would be cheaper to buy the refill and use your own spray bottle.

The stories of Harvey and Titan were a "lightbulb moment" for me. It had
never occurred to me that I might have a "one car dog". Silas grew up
riding in the front seat of a pickup and the back seat of a Isuzu Impulse.
I was a grad student at the time and often drove one of the university
trucks.
