I do it by:

  1. Replacing the default date format string to exclude ms.
  2. Including %(msecs)03d in the format string where appropriate.  Using 'd'
     instead of s truncates rather than shows the full float value.

So in your case, I believe that changing your formatter creation to:

  formatter = logging.Formatter(fmt='%(asctime)s.%(msecs)03d \t %(name)s \t %(levelname)s \t %(message)s', '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')

should work.  This uses the same date format as the default, but
without ms, though of course you could also opt to make any other date
format you prefer.
