Fall is the season for change in so many ways! But what you do in the autumn for flea and tick prevention for pets is really the same as what you do in the spring and summer<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because we aren\u2019t in an area that experiences an entire season of hard freeze in the fall or winter, the chance of encountering fleas and ticks in the environment is always there. Plus, even when it\u2019s chilly outside, they may want to join us in our warm homes\u2013ick!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Prevention is Key<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Rather than battle an infestation that is already underway, keep up with your dog or cat\u2019s regular prevention schedule<\/a> for your best chance at keeping fleas and ticks away. But be sure to get approved products from a trusted source\u2014like us at MarketPlace Veterinary Hospital<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First of all, you want to be sure that any fall flea and tick control product<\/a> you choose is effective; some over-the-counter options may not work well. Second, it\u2019s vital to ensure that the product you choose is safe:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
