[pyrnet] Demodectic mange :(

Lucy & Sue:

Thank you very much for the tips.

I ordered the Goodwinol last night - still have to look for the Ivermectin. I ordered the Chlorhexiderm Max 4% Spray & Shampoo from a Yahoo Store. I will use all and hope Kodi's condition begins to clear up by the Fall.

This is what I used on the three (3) thirteen week old Great Pyrenees pups that I rescued 5 years ago...

"All about ChlorhexiDerm Maximum 4% Spray. View complete and up to date ChlorhexiDerm Maximum 4% Spray veterinary information - part of the Drugs.com veterinary database. ... ChlorhexiDerm Maximum is a full strength antimicrobial spray containing penetrating agents and emollients for optimal therapeutic effectiveness." - they also make a shampoo.

I used the shampoo, as prescribed by my vet (and purchased there, too).

It cleared the mange right up and there was one mild reoccurrence almost three months later (due to having 4 hurricanes back-to-back here in south FL). I guess the stress induced the relapse.

None have had any setbacks in the nearly 5 years since.

Best of luck, Christine!
