We have found one on each of our dogs since the middle of May. Both were very small and were hard to get to through their thick hair. They never had any ticks in VA. We apply Advantix to them each month and that kills ticks and fleas. We also have found some fleas, some dead and some alive. Guess the alive ones hadn't bitten yet or the Advantix had not hit them yet. When I say "we", I actually mean "my wife."
