Its a long, painful story, but has anyone's vet advised this as a remedy? I'm aware of Ivectin (sp?), but haven't had a confirmed diagnosis...my vet is convinced its allergies, I'm not! Appointment w/ derm on Tuesday (that was the first available). In the meantime, I applied the Frontline to hopefully help. Pamphlet says "aids in the control of sarcoptic mange". What does that mean exactly?? Vet says it will cure if that really what my POOR itching baby has. Anyone, please advise...thanks! We are miserable!
