Just found my 1st tick on me since I was a KID (and that was a WHILE ago

).......we just moved to NH from MA and I was out just walking the dog around the yard, came in, felt an 'itch' on my leg and low and behold, this tiny little bugger.....and that posting on FB from the 'nurse' about dish soap, put it on the cotton ball, yada yada yada, well that only made it bury it's head in further....now the DOG on the other hand, haven't found a one on her, but faithful ALL year round with K9 AdvantixII......(can't they make that for people please?)
BUT now that I read your post, I will itch now for a few hours, look at every little itch to make sure lol...even though i KNOW I just sprayed myself about an hour ago before I went outside to the garden and the yard! LOL....
