It would be important to identify them before coming up with a management plan. The MSU Plant and Pest Diagnostic Laboratory can accept samples for identification. You can find more information on their website: pestid.msu.edu
It might be helpful to have a conversation with your veterinarian to see if they have any suggestions for ways to protect your pet from these kinds of parasites.
