Infestation of ticks

I've spent two days bathing my dogs separately because the ticks were just too many. It came to the point that I converted one of the tick shampoo into a spray killing one i could find. I was tempted to use insecticides but my aunts and mom came home early and they don't like the small.
I will purchase the proper spray against ticks soon. But I'm not sure which one is legit. I read some of the reviews and I get to pay attention to those who have bad reviews.

Do you have Frontline or Pet Armour (I think Pet Armour is cheaper) available? Can you buy it online? You just put the drops in the back of the neck, and they are good for a month against ticks and fleas. I assume if they worked on my dog, they would work on yours? Just make sure not to use anything on the dogs that isn’t meant for dogs or they could get real damage to their skin. I’m pretty sure you know that, but you scared me with the insecticide talk.

@Letranknight2015 I guess your vet is your best bet, and I hope they can help.

I have already put Frontline on both of them last week @AmbiePam. I thought of insecticide as desperation, but didn't do it. It has obviously spread beyond their area.

If you can talk to a vet, or go to an actual store you'll get the best advice.

I use a ticks shampoo for my dog and an anti tick powder too. My dog doesn't have any tick.

@Letranknight2015 We do get anti tick powders for dogs in India. So our dog is safe.

@Letranknight2015 I am sure there are specific products to help your dog get rid of them.
