You will have to buy a treatment for ticks such as Frontlie spot on for example, you will need to apply the treatment on the back of the neck and wait about 24 hours until the ticks fall from her. you can also remove them manually with the aid of a tick remover but you still need to apply a treatment against ticks to protect her.
