Treating Sarcoptic Mange MYSELF?
Sarcoptic Mange on Dogs
My dogs have sarcoptic mange. It took 4 weeks to convince any vet of this because they wanted to blame allergies and saw no mites in the skin scrape. Right, $2000 later my dogs STILL have sarcoptic mange and NO treatment. I ordered on my own this white sulfur. I want to also treat them with revolution though. It’s such an easy treatment for this, my mind is boggled by the fact that no vet could just do this.
Anyway, I called my vet yesterday and asked this too. I’m tired of the vets and my dogs are suffering pretty bad and getting worse. My dog now has a hematoma in his other ear (his first hematoma was fixed with five drainings and steroid injections), he is BLEEDING my other dog has lesions on her stomach now.
I want to buy revolution and treat it myself immediately. But I don’t know if I can because I just gave them frontline plus on Nov 1 AND my dog has a liver problem.
My vet was off today but he called me back. He said yes there could be problems, it’s up to me I “could try it”.
I’M SO FUCKING FRUSTRATED!!!! I DONT HAVE A DVM I CANT MAKE THESE DECISIONS WHAT IF I MAKE ONE THAT HURTS MY DOGS???????
This is the FOURTH vet. And I’ve been to 2 others in this area they’re awful. This one is the best one but he leaves all the decisions up to me because he doesn’t know what to do. I don’t either!!!
So anyone with knowledge about this please, can I give revolution when I already gave frontline plus this month and I don’t know. If you say ask a vet or go see a vet, you will automatically be blocked.
Preventing Sarcoptic Mange
To use revolution for a mange infestation, it has to be given every 2 weeks I read so it will be an overdose even without the frontline but that’s the treatment.
I already have mite bites on me but they aren’t as bad as my dogs at all. but they’re typical sarcoptic mange..on my knees, shoulders and had it on my ankles. they seem to go away on me in 2 weeks but i got them again.
One of my dogs (noncollie) was given the heartgard injection (not pill, it was a higher dose) and immediately she stopped itching for about 24 hrs, but then started again because my other dog wasn’t given the shot
skin culture ruled out bacterial and fungal infections,allright no revolution. CRAP. the white sulfur should come tomorrow I had it 2 day delivery. i don’t know if that will work now because I’m thinking, these mites burrow under the skin how is anyything topical going to work. I’m sorry I was upset when I wrote this.

Treating My Dogs for Sarcoptic Mange Can I also Treat My cats?
Question On Sarcotpic Mange
Hi There Again,
Here I have yet another question…
I have been treating my dogs for Sarcoptic Mange after my Maltese began loosing his fur…Long story short he was being treated for allergies bu my vet since october, I got a second opinion from another vet after I realized my other dogs were scratching, they found scabei (mites) in the skin scrape now I am treating all my dogs.
The meds and dip have been working great and my dogs look so much healthier and happier especially my old boy who lost most of his fur beacuse of all this. I herd it can pass to my rabbits and cats…:( My rabbits have no contact with my dogs so Im not that worried about them, but my cats walk about the yard, they dont come in direct contact but I just want to know if I could use the same dip which is called DEMADEX (I have put it on the link below) and its to treat Sarcoptic and Demratric Mange plus some other things in dogs. Can I dilute it in a spray bottle and spray it on my cats? I have two and Turkish Angora who loves pleaying with water and my Siamese who hates it! So my question is can I use the dogs formula which is the DEMADEX Rinse put it in a spray bottle and spray it on my cats? Revolution doesn’t control Mange on cats just dogs. I am using Advocate which the vet recommended as it also controls mange.
Please let my know if I cant what else can I do? Can I make a home mix myself??
What about Malaban? Could I use that? Its simular to Demadex although Demadex is more thorough.
Thanks Everyone I would greatly appreciate anything ![]()
I cannot wait till the day all this is over…I have owned dogs all my life and have never had anything like this before

If it helps my dogs are all under the 5kg mark so I dilute 5mls of Demadex to 1 liter of water according to my vet.
Thanks again!!!
I have a cat that had sarcoptic mange…more common in dogs, but my cat also has a non specific immune disorder. My cat was treated with I think Ivermetrix, which is indicated for dogs. He recovered, but was under vet supervision, as dog medicine is usually not indicated for cats. Cats are very sensitive to all kinds of chemicals, meds, etc. My point being, no home remedies for cats.
