My dog is covered in ticks! Why aren't treatments working long-term?

Question

a lot of ticks are being attracted towards bruno. i see them crawling on the floors , walls and when bruno sleeps on bed i could see all the ticks coming towards him. i tried spot on , tick colllar , tick shampoo , tick powder , tick spray but all these works for a week. Am not able to make bruno sleep near me as ticks come out of nowhere on the bed when he is on the bed. why is everything not working? and what should i do to prevent it? Pet's info: Dog | Labradoodle | Male | unneutered | 1 year and 5 months old

If there are that many ticks in your environment, then a thorough cleaning of your environment is probably best as topical medications can only do so much. Scrubbing walls, baseboards, washing bedding and clearing and spraying brush and bushes around your home can help lower tick populations. Keeping Bruno in an area that is easy to clean can also help reduce the amount of ticks in his environment.
