My Princess has Scabies :confused: I just found out yesterday from a dermatoligist that my 7 month old princess has Scabies :( Does anyone have any stories to tell ??? |
I don't have any info on that subject - but if I were you....maybe do an extensive net search to learn more about them ? do you have treatment ? That makes me itchy just reading it :( ....Good luck ! |
From what I've heard, it's mange mites. One type can affect humans the other is harmless. I don't know which one right off the top of my head. Good luck with your treatment. |
When I was a teenager my sister's friends kid stayed at our house for the weekend and she was all itchy. Her friend told her that Jolene had gotten into fiberglass insulation? (she was 6 years old) well a fe days later we were allitchy and my mom took us to the dr and we had scabies. If I recall there was some medicated lotion we had to use. Good luck! |
Revolution the flea & heartworm topical that I like to refer to as "the miracle"kills sarcoptic mange (which is scabie mites) It replaces your heartworm & flea med plus prevents ear mites, mange & more. Ask your vet about it or buy it at http://www.deadfleaz.com. |

My girl currently has scabies. She was a rescue and I was told that she had a bad case of the fleas. She had been to the vet and treated for fleas, but her skin was still very flaky, she was itchy, and she had some sore spots. I had her for two weeks before it was time to take her to the vet again. During that time I changed her food and started her on missing link, bathed her with oatmeal, all to no avail. I take her to the vet and he tells me she has scabies. I was not happy, as I have a few other dogs also, plus two children under the age of nine. However, they gave me some medicine that I have to dip her in once a week for four weeks. She had her first treatment on this past Monday and by Thursday, she looked a million times better, did not scratch nearly as much, and was much more active. The vet said that after the second dip she wouldn't be contagious anymore, but until then we needed to wash very good after handling her so as not to catch it ourselves, not to let her sleep with anyone, and not to let her play with other dogs. It can be overcome... just be patient. :) |

I don't know anything about it for dogs, but I had it once when I was 6. Another little girl in my class passed it on to about 4 other children that were in the same class as her, myself included and it was a horrible, itchy ordeal.. so just be very careful so that you don't catch it! And I hope your little one is feeling better soon!! |
