Professional Flea & Tick Prevention: Protecting Your Pets in Fontana

Fleas cause itching, skin irritation, hot spots, and in heavy cases anemia in small or young pets. Ticks can pass diseases and often hide where you cannot see them right away. Staying ahead of parasites protects your pet’s comfort and keeps your house clean.

Risks to pets

  • Itchy skin, scabs, hair loss, and secondary infections
  • Allergic reactions in sensitive pets that flare quickly
  • Tickborne illness risk on trails, parks, and yards

Risks to families and homes

  • Eggs and larvae hiding in carpets and bedding
  • Bites for people who react strongly
  • Weeks of cleanup if an infestation gets established

Every plan starts with a quick exam. We check for flea dirt, bites, and hidden ticks, then match prevention to your pet’s age, size, health, and lifestyle in Fontana.

We explain which products are safe for puppies and kittens, which pair well with Pet heartworm prevention, and how to use them around kids. You get affordable flea and tick prevention choices with real monthly costs so you can decide with confidence. If an active problem is present, we clear the pests first, then switch to maintenance.

Flea & Tick Prevention

Year-Round Flea & Tick Protection in Fontana

Warm spells in the Inland Empire can show up in any season. That is why we recommend flea and tick prevention year-round. Indoor pets still need protection. Fleas can ride in on shoes or visit from a balcony or hallway. Ticks can hitch a ride on people, other pets, or garden plants. A steady monthly routine is easier than dealing with a household outbreak later.

Simple habits that help

  • Give each dose on the same date every month
  • Treat every pet in the home, not just the itchy one
  • Wash bedding on hot and vacuum high-traffic areas weekly
  • After hikes, do a quick tick check around ears, toes, armpits, and the tail base

Pets Flea and Tick Prevention Services

How do I know if my pet has fleas or ticks?

You can usually tell if your pet has fleas or ticks by watching for constant scratching, red or irritated skin, or small black specks (called flea dirt) in their fur. Sometimes you may even see live fleas or a tick attached to the skin. If you notice any of these signs, bring your pet to our Fontana clinic so a veterinarian can check them and recommend the right flea and tick treatment.
Yes, even indoor pets needed flea and tick prevention. Parasites can easily come inside on your clothes, shoes, or through open doors and windows. Once indoors, fleas multiply quickly and can spread to all pets in the home. Using vet-approved prevention is the safest way to keep both dogs and cats protected year-round, even if they rarely go outside.
If your dog or cat already has fleas or ticks, don’t worry, our veterinarians can provide safe and effective flea and tick removal treatments. We carefully remove ticks and prescribe medications to get rid of fleas at every stage of their life cycle. After treatment, we’ll also recommend an affordable, long-term prevention plan to stop the problem from coming back.
