a bit of FYI, our Daisy has Demodectic Mange,, its present in ALL dogs and some humans,, (I've done oddles of research since finding out she had it),, I had her spayed immediately,, as its is ONLY transmitted mother to Nursing pup,, and comes out in dogs with immunity problems, ,our Vet (whom we love) treated her with the newest (that we know of) treatment,, oral meds,, 15 days of Clavamox (anitbiotic),, along with 60+ days of Promectin (super stong stuff) she required NO heartworm meds for all this time,, as the Promectin would give her the protection needed,, I also got the Goodwinol (ointment) but only used it once,, the oral meds did the trick!! QUICKLY!!! there was an almost immediate turn around for her with the oral meds and hopefully since having her spayed,, she'll have no reoccurence of the problem,, but its always possible,, but heres hoping for no more outbreaks,, it was heartbreaking,, but i was VERY glad to find out and get it taken care of so quickly and well,, its TREATABLE,, but incurable and NOT Contagious,, to other pets or humans
