Flea & Tick Treatment for Dogs in Southwest Ranches
Finding fleas or ticks can leave you wondering what to do about your dog’s next groom. Give us a call and tell us what you’ve seen, along with any treatment you’ve already used. Coco’s offers a flea-and-tick wash for dogs at your Southwest Ranches home, usually added to a grooming appointment.
If this is the only service you need, call us about a separate visit. We’ll ask a few questions before arranging it.
What the treatment adds to your visit
There’s a little more to this than swapping the usual shampoo. We check your dog’s coat, use a dog-specific TropiClean flea-and-tick shampoo according to its directions and rinse it away thoroughly. The rest of the visit follows the grooming package you’ve chosen.
What the treatment includes
- A look through the coat and a conversation about what you've noticed.
- TropiClean flea-and-tick shampoo for dogs, used according to the label.
- Time for the shampoo to work before a thorough rinse.
- Towel drying followed by hand blow-drying. We don't use cage dryers.
Your bath, hygiene care and any haircut come from your selected grooming package. This add-on covers the flea-and-tick wash; it doesn’t treat your home or replace an ongoing prevention plan.
Tell us what you’ve already used
Keep the product name handy and tell us when you last applied it, whether it was a collar, shampoo, spot-on treatment or something else. Mention any previous reaction, too. We need that information before choosing what to use.
Flea & Tick Treatment starts at $25
Our listed add-on range is $25–$35, on top of your grooming package. Your dog’s size, coat and the amount of extra work can bring the charge above that range. We’ll explain the total before starting.
Use our pricing calculator for an estimate of the grooming package, then call about adding this treatment. A separate visit needs its own quote; the add-on starting price isn’t the price of a standalone appointment.
What Pet Owners Say About Coco’s
These reviews come from Coco’s customers on Google.
What happens in the van
Let us know about the fleas or ticks when you book, rather than waiting until we arrive. That gives us a chance to talk through your dog’s age, skin and any products already in use.
1. Hear what you've noticed
Tell us where you've seen fleas or ticks and when the problem started. Have the name and date of any recent treatment ready.
2. Check the coat and skin
We look through the coat and check for irritated areas. If something needs a veterinarian's attention first, we'll discuss that with you.
3. Wash with the right product
We wet the coat with warm, filtered water and apply the dog-specific TropiClean shampoo according to its label.
4. Give it time to work
The shampoo's directions call for the lather to stay on for 5–7 minutes before rinsing. That waiting time is part of the treatment.
5. Rinse and dry
We rinse the shampoo away thoroughly, then towel-dry and hand blow-dry your dog as part of the agreed groom.
6. Finish the selected package
We complete the hygiene care and any trimming included in your booking, then let you know what we found in the coat.
A wash helps your dog. The home needs attention, too.
It’s understandable to want one appointment to sort the whole problem out. This wash deals with fleas and ticks on your dog at the time of treatment. It won’t reach the ones in bedding, carpets or anywhere else your dog spends time.
Speak with your veterinarian about suitable ongoing prevention and what to do if your dog is sore or unwell. Let us know what they recommend, especially if another product will be used around the time of the groom.
Why this can take longer than a regular bath
When we talk about extra time for this treatment, part of it is simply giving the shampoo the contact time its directions require. We can’t put it on and rinse it straight off as though it were an ordinary wash.
Ticks can also need individual attention. In our experience, finding and removing attached ticks can be slow, detailed work. That’s why we ask what you’ve seen before booking and check the coat when we arrive, rather than promising that every dog will need the same amount of work.
