Sad Ear mites!!

So I took Poppy back to the vets today.
As I have said before we thought she had an ear infection before I went on holiday, we took her to the vets and were given ear drops.
She is still scratching so I brought her back today and the vet said she is crawling with ear mites!! my poor baby
He said they are VERY contagious so we have to treat all dogs she has been in contact with, which are my older dog Jess and my BFs dog Bruce.
We have been given ear drops to kill the mites so we need to put 3-5 drops in her ears twice a day for 7 days and he also gave her an injection.
Hopefully this will kill them.
I asked how she might have gotten them and he said she would have gotten them from her mother.
He said the rottweiler which the breeder had (with the bad ears) probably has them and has given them to the yorkies.. who then passed them onto their pups.
I will tell the breeder this but I know she wont treat her dogs, its so sad.
Has anyone had any experience with ear mites?
He told me to bring her back if after 10 days she is still scratching, but I think I will take her back if she is scratching or not just to make sure they are all gone.
