How do I get rid of deer ticks?

Question

I went out to the country yesterday, and driving back home I saw one on my hand, and then sitting at the table one just fell off maybe from my hair, and this morning woke up to something I felt on my back and it was a tick. I googled deer ticks and it's the exact same one. I'm just scared to have them in my house cause I have 2 dogs and a cat. ANY HELP!!

Not much you can do for yourself except keep covered with long pants & long sleeves when you are in the area where there may be ticks.  You need to treat your dogs & cat with a flea & tick treatment such as Advantage Plus.  That is what we use and it seems to work pretty good.
