[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 13772"] If it was mange mites, I believe one method of Ivomec works better than the other - not sure. I know the pour-on only gets one type of lice (either biting or sucking - not both) and the injectable gets both. Mage mites sounds awful but it is actually quite common. There are many methods of getting rid of ringworm. I scrape it with a curry comb until all the dry flakes are gone and it starts to bleed. Then I put straight clorox on it. After that, I mix clorox & captan (a fungicide for your gardens) and make a paste & apply it for a few days. After that I simply keep it pasted with vaseline.
