If you apply Frontline spot on then any ticks that get on your dog will die within 24 to 48 hours.
Any ticks that are on now you can soak in ether or surgical spirits to help loosen the head, and use tweezers to pull them off, check you've got the tick intact as if the head breaks off in your dog it can cause a skin infection, but if you use Frontline they will start to die as soon as they bite into your dog and removing them is easier, or you can just let them to drop off once dead.
