Answers:
does your dog have fleas?
even if he doesn't come inside, that's where i'd start.
you might vacuum more often.
and more thoroughly.
near as i can figure, ticks aren't long distance hikers.
i'd guess, if you fix whatever is bring them in, you'll fix the problem.
Get a flea and tick bomb. Leave the house for a few hours and set it off. Should kill them all!

• In the House
If you have ticks in your house, you will need to remove anything that may offer a hiding place, such as old boxes, newspapers, or stored firewood. Apply a product that gets under furniture and into cracks and crevices, paying special attention to baseboards, window and door frames, paneling and fireplaces. Foggers can be used, as well, for an overall general treatment.
• In the Yard
Ticks are most commonly found in grassy or wooded areas, so cut back any tall grass around your house. They also like leaves and vegetation. Pay special attention to underbrush, doghouses and kennels, woodpiles and areas where your pet likes to rest. Since ticks crawl up vertical objects, treat not only the ground but up onto vertical surfaces three to four feet.
