i just spent 450 bucks on our dog's checkup last night, shit is not cheap. if you got ticks in your bed, you should wash all your sheets, vacuum all your floors, wash your dog, and get him/her some frontline or other type of flea/tick repellent ASAP

If you have a vet appt today I would suggest waiting on any type of home treatment.

I just got a new puppy from some lowlifes last week that were going to put him in the pound. I did not give him any frontline or anything else prior to his vet appt and the vet was happy that I refrained from self treating.

Not treating the puppy myself allowed the vet to treat him as he saw fit, which ended up being a prescription strength pill that killed ALL fleas on him within 4 hours and keeps killing them until his next appointment (in 2 more weeks now) At that time we'll decide on what options to go with for fleas, ticks, heartworm, etc - which will depend on lifestyle (walking, hiking, etc)

The vet said that had I treated him with Frontline or any of the other over the counter meds you can buy, it would have limited his tx options
