He said all dogs have mites but when a dogs immune system gets down their body cant naturally take care of them and the reproduce excessively then you have a problem. Has anyone else ever have to do this. He is getting to where he hates going to the vets. We are just hoping this will help with his skin problems. | There are 2 good products you can buy from your vet or from a vet supply company that will take care of mites.
1- Paramite, use 1/2 ounce per gallon of water. put drop of mineral oil in each eye to keep from burning the eyes in case it gets into them. Sponge until puppy wet throughly. Allow puppy to dry with Paramite on it. Use every 7 days. Wear Gloves when doing this procedure. Paramite is for Dogs only. Do Not Use on Dogs less than 12 weeks.
2-LymeDyp, is a scented lime sulfur concentrate dip. 4 ounces per gallon of water. can be used on dogs and cats. Put mineral oil in eyes. same insturctions as when using Paramite.
