Works on Mites may also work on ticks. Get a bottle of NIX at walmart. It's used for human lice. Pour into a 1gal water container. Fill with water. Shake good. Spray everything: Cage, animal, everything! Repeat till no more ticks. Never failed me!

You could also look at Natural Chemistry Reptile Relief. I had pretty good results with it. Also make sure you quarantine the sanke if you own others. And I would stop bying imports. It's just a bad way to go.
I did not buy it myself, someone did not then did not want it because it had ticks. They were going to release it in NJ. So I had to take it.
I have the exact same thing going on myself. That's how I know imports are problems and that Natural Chemistry was decent on the ticks. I'm actually in Jersey myself.
