How do to get rid of fleas and ticks without using chemicals onto dogs body ?

I have a problem with chemicals and so does my dog. We are both extremely sensitive to any chemicals to treat ticks and fleas with. Something that I could buy at a local grocery store without any problems would be fantastic. I do live in a very rural area, where there are more cows than people. Homeopathy-tick and flea removel are unfortunately out of my range of buying. any other sugjestions?
Thank you ! annie h.

What is the best store bought product for getting rid of ticks in the yard.?

I have a dog who has really brought a tick problem……I have had her dipped at the vet and the exterminators have even sprayed that yard..About two weeks later I felt the ticks were just as bad all over again. Does anybody have some good recommendations as to what to get that I can use for the lawn to kill the ticks…

If you have a local farmers co-op near by, get some
T T & O 38 insecticide. Use 2-ozs per gallon of water.
Or put 1-pint in 10-15 gal. sprayer.
Spray the entire yard. It will take care of any ticks, fleas,
ants…etc.
Keeps dogs off for about 1/2 day or until it drys. And do
not spray it into any standing water that the dog may drink.
