I got it out, but our buddy's ear bled a lot and it hurt. I didn't have a dilution of to put on it so I just held pressure like he was a human until it clotted. Thank goodness that was quick. I have also done a Diotomatious Eath and baking soda treatment with essential oils for our carpet. Today 7/15 I am happy to report that we are successfull fighting the resistant tics that have given us so much trouble with our Corgi Carmel. I foun
