    Can't find Ivomec injectable.

    There is a shortage if ivomec plus, and generic equivalents. I have tried Valley Vet, and Amazon as well as local places. Does anyone have another source I can try. I need to have a wormer that works on fluke, but don't want to use a a drench if I can avoid it. thanks

    crazy worming q
