To carry on the tick conversation ...

Found a deer tick on my daughter's shoulder this evening when i was getting her ready for bed ... her class just had a doctor in to educate the kids on lymes disease ...

... so I was getting her ready for bed, spot it, thought it was dirt and bring her into the bathroom ... notice the legs, try to pull it off, wasn't working so I pour some oil on it ... then grab tweezers and the tick was pulling its head out as I was grabbing it, I put it into a zip loc bag ...

... my daughter freaked, shreeked at the top of her lungs for over an hour ... the tick is still alive trapped in the bag ...

Now i don't think she had it all that long, do I need to take her to the doctor's or wait and see if the symptoms occur? I can drop the tick off at the doctor's ...

Any thoughts?

Thanks for the feedback.
