Sarcoptic Mange

How can I find out if my dog has sarcoptic mange, or some other kind of mange without taking her to a vet?

Sarcoptic Mange Information

sarcoptic mange on dogsI know of a few over the counter treatments, for various kinds of mange. I’m trying to avoid an astronomical vet bill.

Try scratching her ear flap on the inside with your finger nail. if her foot starts scratching or it makes her feel good then she probrablly has sarcoptic mange. or some kind of mange i can never remember which. but its a quick and easy test. then go to the vet for skin scrapings for a definite diagnosis.

Dealing with Sarcoptic Mange

* try the edge of the ear on the inside too, also known as the pinna*

This really does work. but its not a diagnosis by itself. its just a quick and easy way to rationalize a skin scraping. you still need the medications.

Everyone gives me the thumbs down but they most likely dont work at a vet. look it up online heres the website

Sarcoptic Mange and using ECTO-SOOTH 3X?

Using Sarcoptic Mange

dog mange - sarcoptic mangeI took my dog to the vet and they told me to use ECTO-SOOTH 3X for his Sarcoptic Mange. I did some research. I can’t find information on this product being used for mange. I have some left over dip from a dog I had 10 years ago which I know for a fact works.
Has one ever heard of someone using ECTO-SOOTH 3X for mange?

Give it a go if that’s what the vet said. I haven’t heard of it before either.
If it doesn’t work, use the dip.

What is Sarcoptic Mange?

Sarcoptic mange is the name for the skin disease caused by infection with the Sarcoptes scabei mite. Mites are not insects; instead they are more closely related to spiders. They are microscopic and cannot be seen with the naked eye.

Adult Sarcoptes scabei mites live 3-4 weeks in the host’s skin. After mating, the female burrows into the skin depositing 3-4 eggs in the tunnel behind her. The eggs hatch in 3-10 days producing a larvae which, in turn, move about on the skin surface eventually molting into a “nymphal” stage and finally into an adult. The adults move on the surface of the skin where they mate and the cycle begins again with the female burrowing and laying eggs.

Dealing with Sarcoptic Mange on Dogs

Yes, it’s a nasty little mite that embeds itself in the dogs skin and causes horrible looking crusty sores and tremendous itching in the dog. The dog loses its fur from the mites and from itching and chewing on itself. It is very contagious and the dog must be seen by a vet and given medications to get rid of it. It’s nasty.
