Fleas and ticks have some nerve attacking innocent cats and dogs. Parents take it personally when their pets get infested - so when pethood gets itchy, they know exactly where to go and how to strike back. Watch this commercial for PetSmart, starring Jane Lynch and her dog, William. "PetSmart | Partners in Pethood | Don't Mess With This Lady" I love nature. And all of its creatures, great and small. Except for the teeny tiny ones - fleas and ticks. I am not a fan of infestation. This is our flea and tick section. How bad is your infestation? Oh, it's a nightmare, Jim. Can I call you Jim? Uh, yeah. Well, PetSmart has the products to help treat your pet, home and yard. Now this is William. William is named after William McKinley, 25th President and my second favorite President. Well, I hope so. Because you know what? They're sneaky. Yeah. Just when you think you've gotten rid of them, they show up again. Because they join forces. And this is Monty, my kitty cat. I named Monty after my favorite game show host. And they gang up on ya, what are you supposed to do? You have to fight back. I'm a lover, I'm not a fighter, OK? But they're forcing me to take up arms. As far as I can see, they don't serve any purpose. Fleas and ticks. They see me as some kind of an easy target. I mean, maybe they do in the great scheme of things, but I have no idea what that would be. Unless it was to annoy us. And they hop from animal to animal, into your bed. And to anger me. Into your garden. And to harsh with the mellow of my William and my Monty. On to you, Jim. Have you ever had a flea jump on to you, Jim? You know, sometimes in the middle of the night I sit bolt upright, and I'm thinking about 'em. I'm thinking about the fleas and the ticks. You don't wanna mess with this lady. It enrages me! I bet you got that impression, didn't you, Jim? You don't wanna mess with me. No. Not at all. You don't want this lady to get mad. You're not afraid of me, are you Jimmy? Can I call you Jimmy? I prefer that you... What is this? Ooh, you little...oh, that's a ladybug. There you go. But if that were a flea or a tick... Break their little necks! I'd go for it's little neck if I could find the neck. Do they have necks? Do fleas and ticks have necks? But if they did have necks, I would break 'em! And that's why I count on PetSmart to help me fight this scourge. Don't Mess with This Lady PetSmart Partners In Pethood
