Finding a good vet is really hard, and some are better with certain health issues than others. We found our current vet through a neighbor. We had both started out with one vet whom neither of us liked.
Coconut oil is anti-fungal. I don't think it clogs pores, not on my skin. Max had something going on with his nose, something pimply, a few years ago and the coconut oil cleared it up. Has to be the good stuff without any preservatives or additives. We use Nutiva and Cocotherapy brands.
Older threads I've read on YT about leather ear talk about the vinegar solution as Linda described. I also read about using Lotrimin antifungal cream as a follow up. I would check with the vet before trying that. The potential for the dog to lick it would make me nervous. Something to think about.
