For mites very few products can compete with Ivomec. The pour ons we use for ticks also control flies, just pour a few drops on the poll of the head.

Interesting name, by the way, can't be many people named Harley ;-)

I use something called Ultraboss on my cows and horses. Works great for flies, ticks, ect.

You might also try pyrethrin. Pyrethrins are natural insecticides produced by certain species of the chrysanthemum plant. You can normally buy a 10% solution of this at local feed stores pretty cheap. Dilute with water and you can "safely" spray most anything or anybody.

Provided you don't get a lot of rain, a good coat of this on a cow will give you 3 - 4 weeks with no flies.
