It really depends on what he has. Lice and ticks are very different things. I would recommend starting with an oral flea/tick preventive (which you'll need to get from his vet) and a good bath with general dog shampoo. Actually, given his tender age, starting with a vet visit would be best so they can treat him appropriately from the get go.
