Gretchen...
We got off track a bit here but what the heck!
Because you are so open to learning... here is a great link to protecting your dog against ticks and fleas......

The video is a bit messed up but all the information is written in great length!
Perhaps this product is something you would be interested in trying...??

My dog doesn't react well to the tick and flea applications either and I hate giving them to her. I usually only use half of the tube a month, which is better, but anything is toxic. Just the thought of using a pesticide on her makes me feel very bad.
I know they have oral medication, but that also has side effects. I'd like to use something more natural, but it would have to work. I don't want fleas in the house either!
I'll keep you posted on the dental stuff.
