There is no way to get it all out. No matter how much I wash her face with warm water and even dog shampoo, it just will not come out. I can take the big dry chunks from the corners of her eyes multiple times daily.
Have you tried using a flea comb? Tiny little thing about 2.5 inches long, with about 100 tiny teeth in that small distance! You dampen the eyes with a warm water wash cloth...they love that, it is very relaxing....after those nasty eye boogers have soaked just a tad, take your flea comb and just comb them right out...gets it all! I stand at the sink with the hot water running and my son holds the dog....I do each eye and rinse the gunk off the little comb with that hot water, then go back at the nasties with the warm water that is still on the comb....takes about 1 minute per eye!
