Parasite Control

Parasite Control

At EastSide Veterinary Services, we provide customized parasite control plans rather than one-size-fits-all solutions. Our experienced veterinarians understand local parasite risks and use safe, veterinarian-approved products appropriate for your pet's age and health, with ongoing support for prevention, early detection, treatment, and follow-up.

Parasites We Focus On

  • Fleas, ticks & mites (external parasites)
  • Heartworm — vector-borne and serious if untreated
  • Intestinal worms — roundworms, hookworms, whipworms, tapeworms
  • Lice and other less common parasites

Why Parasite Control Is Essential

  • Prevent disease and discomfort — infestations cause skin irritation, allergies, digestive issues, and anemia
  • Protect your pet through Kingston's seasonal parasite pressure
  • Safeguard your household — some parasites can pass from pets to humans

What Our Parasite Control Includes

  • A comprehensive veterinary assessment and lifestyle review
  • Fecal/stool analysis to detect internal parasites
  • Blood tests to screen for heartworm and other vector-borne parasites
  • A tailored prevention schedule and treatment plan

When to Contact Us

  • Frequent scratching, skin redness, or hair loss
  • Visible fleas, ticks, or flea dirt
  • Changes in appetite, vomiting, or diarrhea
  • Coughing or breathing issues, or sudden weight loss
