Thanks so much for all the advice. I will start using DEET bugspray
on all of us. We actually did put some kind of repellant on us
(don't have it in front of me, so can't remember what it
is...something my husband used in the Middle East) but I didn't put
too much on DD for fear of the strength of the product and of her
putting her hands in her mouth.

I took her to the doctor and he pulled the second tick and is
sending it to Public Health for them to do a test on it. He said
it's very unlikely that the ticks in Virginia will have Lyme
Disease, but PH wanted to test it to be sure. That makes me feel
good that they're willing to check.

Oh, I liked the idea about spraying the kids' hair with repellant.
She has tons of long hair and I really don't look forward to trying
to root through it all to look for a dot the size of a pin head. :)

We're going searching again this weekend and we'll have a dust cloud
like Pigpen's of DEET around us, haha.
