My guess would be that the mites never did get taken care of all the way.
Maybe I'm thinking of something else, but can't Ivermectin be used for that?
Isn't the a standard treatment? Not Heartgard but an off-label dose or am I thinking of something else...? |
This Ivermectin, isn't that whats in the Heargard medicine that we are giving him and also the Flea Medicine is supposed to help with Sarcoptic Mange. But I tend to agree maybe just maybe he still has mites!! We have been to 2 different vets one doesn't do the allergy tests so we went to another doc that does. Now he talked us out of it and sd. we need to do food trial. He also sd. the allergy tests are $350.00 and still do not make a complete diagnosis. No one has offered the scratch test, they talked us out of that too sd not definitive. THANK YOU, THANK YOU ALL OF YOU. I WILL GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS YOU JUST WAIT.
