Oh, lordy. I know how you feel. I placed a puppy before Christmas and the new mom e-mailed me that he had ear mites. That had never happened in all my years til I bought Biewers from Germany. My vet jokingly told me they were "European mites" as she was handing me Milbecide for 10 Yorkies to the tune of $11.00 a dose. Good thing is that no flushing is needed and it is a one-dose treatment..If you have other dogs, I would suggest you treat them as well. The treatment is for cats but is also used for dogs; that tells me that cats get them too. You can clean til the cows come home and not get rid of the mites. Those little buggers are strong and not easily done away with..
YOU are NOT a bad mommy so get the treatments, take care of the problem and remember, you took her to the vet so you cannot be the bad mommy that you feel you are..Reminds me of the times kids come home from school with a note saying a kid in the class had head bugs and you need to check and treat your kid...
