If one pet in the household has ticks, will the others get bitten?

It's possible. Ticks don't discriminate. So once they take a blood meal from one pet and digest that, they may go over to you or another pet for another meal.

Not necessarily. Ticks do not usually jump from one pet to another. However, if one pet has ticks, it indicates that ticks are present in the environment, so it is more likely that other pets may also come into contact with ticks. Infestations with ticks are rare unless there is a large number of them in the environment right outside your home.

If you have further questions about ticks on your dog, how to prevent them, or the diseases they transmit, it is recommended to consult with your veterinarian or contact a local pet hospital like Blue Oasis Pet Hospital.
