Flea Prevention

Did you know that just one flea can lay up to 50 eggs a day? That means a small itch can quickly turn into a full-blown infestation — not just on your pet, but in your home too!

Fleas don’t just cause itching. They can lead to:
✔️ Skin infections
✔️ Allergic reactions
✔️ Tapeworms
✔️ Anemia in severe cases — especially in kittens and puppies

The good news? Fleas are preventable!
We offer safe, effective flea prevention options tailored to your pet’s age, weight, and lifestyle. Whether it’s a topical, oral, or long-lasting treatment — we’ll help you choose the best protection.

🐾 If your pet is scratching more than usual, or you’ve spotted tiny “pepper-like” specks in their fur, give us a call! Early treatment makes all the difference.

Lyme Disease

Lyme disease is caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi and is transmitted by the blacklegged tick.  It is the most commonly reported vector-borne disease in the United States and it is spreading across the state of Michigan.  Typical clinical signs include flu-like symptoms however, if left untreated may spread to joints, the heart, and/or the nervous system.  The majority of cases can be treated successfully with antibiotics.  Finding and removing ticks promptly can prevent Lyme disease. 

As Lyme disease and other tick-borne diseaes becomes more prevalent in Macomb County, it is highly recommended to keep your pet on year-round protection and to consider vaccinating for Lyme disease.
