I would never used tea tree oil without washing it off and then still I don't use it.

Revolution would probably be the treatment of choice here, but it is two doses two weeks apart.

A lot of the sprays used for this are going to be highly toxic and could take your pup's life. I'd look for an Engligh speaking vet.

Where on your pup's body is the fungal issue?
I was just quoting what the package insert stated:

Sarcoptic ange Treatment n Dogs
For the treatment of sarcoptic mange (SS scabiei) in dogs,REVOLUTION should be administered once
as a single topical dose.A second monthly dose may be required in some dogs.Monthly use of
REVOLUTION will control any subsequent sarcoptic mange mite infestations.Because of the difficulty in
finding sarcoptic mange mites on skin scrapings, effectiveness assessments also were based on reso-
lution of clinical signs.Resolution of the pruritus associated with the mite infestations was observed in
approximately 50%of the dogs 30 days after the first treatment and in approximately 90%of the dogs
30 ays fter he econd monthly treatment.

And with the age of this pup and with his other issues, thought a less aggressive approach might be better? My vet had me repeat the dose in 3 weeks. I think the stuff is very safe, maybe she could decide after seeing how her pup responds to it? If she can even get it.
