Uses of oral/injectable ivermectin in small animals for anything other than heartworm prevention is considered off-label use and is not approved by the FDA.

i go to the SPCA ( http://www.spca.bc.ca/ ) in canada and they also sent a few tissue samples to the lab so i'm waiting for the results.
at the mean time, the doctor suggested to give muffin that as an antibiotic.. she said it might take up to months or even years to get rid of all the parasites/mites
