I was hoping to find some alternative methods or boosters to help what the Vet
is trying. It couldn't hurt because nothing is working anyhow.

I had a GSD with red mange (mites) and was told to use Paramite dips -
follow instructions on box. The mites were gone in about 2 to 3 weeks. I
would dip her and then every day just put some diluted paramite on the bad
patches and itchy sore spots. Paramite is sold at almost every vets
office, co-ops and Pet stores in general. Carol
PS also found it kills ticks and fleas in the bargain.

And Mitaban isn't sold unless through a vet, at least not that I know of. I
wonder what the deal is on that? It would seem like the Paramite people
would want to advertise that it works for Demodectic mites?
Thanks for sharing your experience...
I appreciate it!

Seem like Sarcoptic Mange is easier to knock out than the Demodectic
(generalized).....
Glad your dog is back to normal....
The mite count on the skin-scrapings are down rather low as of the last check
on Friday. This is a good sign (on my Dachshund)
thanks again!
