Stop ticks from biting your pet by using a tick treatment that either kills or repels them if they attach themselves. There are different types of treatments, such as spot-on treatments and tablets. Ask your vet for the best tick treatment. Don't try to burn them off or use lotion to suffocate them, as this won't prevent your pet from picking up a disease.

Bleach contains powerful chemicals that can instantly kill ticks.
Bleach can be used by placing the tick in a small container that contains bleach.
Detergent can kill ticks on your pet with any sort of dishwashing liquid.
Apply a generous amount of soap on your pet and allow your pet to soak in the soap for 15-30 minutes.
Rubbing alcohol can kill ticks for good.
Once you remove the tick, put it in a cup of alcohol and cover it up with a lid to prevent the tick from escaping.
Applying a drop or two of neem oil straight to the tick will cause it to detach itself fast from the skin.
However, this may not kill the tick, just cause it to detach.
Eucalyptus oil acts as a tick killer as well as tick repellant.
Spray a solution of 4 ounces of pure or distilled water with 20 drops of eucalyptus oil on yourself and your pet.
