Hi. Just wondering if any of you have had any experience with your furbaby having ringworm? Sully had it before I got him, the breeder said it was cleared, and then about 2 months ago my vet did a culture and said he had it back again! He's been on an antibiotic for it for 8 weeks, we did those stinky lime dips, and we just got the antibiotic refilled for another 8 weeks. Any idea how long it usually takes for this kind of thing to clear up?? His skin looks a ton better but the vet just wants to be cautious.
