Pinch it out like it was a pimple and us alcohol on the open wound

Lay her down on her stomach. Using kitchen cooking oil, cover the tick. Let it set until the tick pulls its head out to keep from smothering. Hope this helps.

put some alcohol on it, maybe it my die.... im not sure...

Cover the tick with vaseline. This will smother it and then with tweezers gently pull it out. Treat the wound with neosporin or bacitracin ointment.

The entire head and body doesn't burrow into the skin. Only the mouth an pinchers. It is best to go to the doctor or ER and have it removed. The sooner the better. Leaving even a pincher behind can cause problems. Lymes disease can be serious.

If the tick has a white dot it could be serious and you might have to remove the whole thing, cauterize a tweezer with a pass through a flame and dig in. If the back was not white still remove the head. Watch for fever. Its the only problem you might have. I have removed ticks from serval parts of my body while hunting and fishing, they tend to dig into pores.
