My 4 year old grandson was discussed with an engorged tick in his head. Our family has a horrible history with tick born disease. Unfortunately the state he lives in the pediatrician does not believe in prophylactic treatment. My understand is amoxicillin is the drug of choice at this age and telemedicine is available. In addition we have the choice of sending the tick I believe to Igenix or or Ticknology which has a 72 hour turn around. Any thoughts on the treatment or where to send the tick? Thanks
