If you noticed you itch too - it must be something in the home and that's where it becomes alot of work. You hate to see your dog suffering and will need to get a handle on this quickly....Some 'mites' live UNDER under the skin and cause misery.....
you don't have to have an unclean envoirnment to have a problem like this but you will need to be pro-active and find out what exactly is going on and take it from there....ALL THE BEST ! I'd hate to be in your shoes and I hope your little guy will be ok |
my grandma is super neurotically clean lolll and her dog came from breeder with scabies and my grandma got scabies too so she had to go to the doctor and get a special lotion and she had to wash everything in hot water constantly until it was gone. She went the route of having him dipped which i would not do but her vet is old school and he was a bigger yorkie as well. He had to be dipped 2 or three times to get rid of it. I personally think from everything i have read that revolution is the safest and best way to treat scabies.
do they have dermatologists there in china as i would think they would have specialists there as well if so i would just go to a dermatologist.
The holistic vet we saw does chinese medicine and he was the one that put dd on revolution to rule out scabies
here is the book he wrote
