Antibiotics
In some cases, tick bites would lead to an infection. The vet will prescribe some broad-spectrum antibiotics to prevent further complications. These medications can kill bacteria penetrating the body through the bitten area. Depending on the severity and form of infection, the treatment plan often lasts a few days up to a few weeks. The most common antibiotic for dealing with tick infection is doxycycline. A regular check is important to determine the effectiveness and prevent further complications. [4]
