NEVER pull it out with your hands or even tweezers you have to be very careful. Best "repellent" of ticks is to eat garlic, it pours from your sweat and they don't like to be on you as much. There is a supplement in pill form that has the same effect but doesn't give you the bad breath

Been taking garlic capsules since 1993. Ticks get on the skin but just want to get away. They never dig in.
Garlic and dogs: onions are known to damage dogs' hemoglobin and cause hemolytic anemia.
Another report suggests that garlic doesn't have nearly the amount of the relevant compound that onions have.
There's a lot of vigorous assertion and folklore out there. If I come across a good, veterinarian-run study, I'll post a link. In the mean time, I don't feed either onions or garlic to my dog.
