So sorry to hear that you are going through this. It has been 5 months and we are still dealing with it, although not nearly as bad as before. I used the medicated shamposs, all the otc creams, lotions, sprays and powders on his body along with lime sulphur dips and it finally cleared them all up. I was so afraid of getting all that in his eyes and nose that I was not able to treat his face properly. He continued to have active lesions there and he finally got old/big enough for the vet to give him oral meds. He did 10 days on ketoconazole. I think (pray) we finally have this taken care of. I had to go back to the doctor for more meds as did my granddaughter, son and his girlfriend. He is 6 months now, so his immune system should be getting where if there are any more popping up, he can fight them off. I had 76 spots at one time and now only have 2 stubborn ones that don't won't to completely go away. I still wash everything regularly and change his bed out every few weeks as well as vacumming regularly. It is a very frustrating and aggravating problem, but hopefully we are about done with it. I will post pictures of him later so you can see that the hair does come back. He lost almost all of his hair and I was afraid he would end up with permanent bald spots. He is such a handsome little man, and yes, I would do it all again for all the joy he has brought into my life !!!! Hang in there..... it will get better !!!
