Heyah Snow, You might want to describe in more details on how the so called infection looked like. Your vet might be rite, but be wary, coz if it's ticks and fleas, normally you can see them. Is your lab an outdoor or indoor dog? The location of the skin infection also says a lot. Other causes of infection maybe due to dietary (very ma-fan, this one...), washing agent e.g. shampoo, its location etc etc....As your vet suggested, try ruling out fleas, ticks first by putting on flea collar, spot-on (neck drop; Frontline), spray etc. Take no chance. If symptoms persist, well....off you go to the vet. But it's good if you can describe how the infection looks like and see whether I can relate the condition to those of my two gals. Oh ya, mine also a lab and the other one is a mongrel. Cheers! **Yogi Puiga-Yoga**
