eoh

Hi, I posted about a week ago about my 2 dogs, great dane cross, and bull mastiff, still scratching and after 3 scrapings at the vet, he found the mange today on the bull mastiff, so both have had an ivomec injection. My question is, is it safe. They are still scratching tonight, getting baths every week wtih malaseb, and also a mite wash which is left on them. They are both on cortisone as well. 20 mg day. Does anyone have any suggestions about what else i can put on them to stop scratching. I am also washing all their bed clothes daily, and going crazy. Thank you. I can post some photos up of them of what they normally look like, and photos later of what they currently look like.

Thanks for that, i have maleseb, and they are due for their bath again tonight, it has only been a week with treatment, i have seen some improvement, but my white great dane cross probably looks as she has little bites all over her stomach, legs, and near her ears. I think i will ring vet and just update him, he does mobile call outs as well, so will get him to come and check them this week. Just went and bought a oatmeal cream to use in between baths as well.

I might give it another week, they are due for their bath again today, they are not constantly scratching all day, my partner also suggested they are allergic to my washing powder, so will go and try a gentle one this week, thanks for all the information.

Oh, OK - ANTI-yeast tablets is bit different to the original post in which you stated the dog was on yeast tablets

Thanks for that, i have also read you can use a anti dandroff treatment on them as it contains ingredients good for their coat. The vet also gave me a plastic collar for the bull mastiff to wear which i haven't had on him overnight as he has only got one good eye, so i will have to leave it on him for 24 hours a day for the next few days to see if it improves, as he keeps scratching his head and reopening his skin

Hi, the vet said he has a yeast infection so on anti-yeast tablets. no foxes here, we did have a lot of birds though, as next door to a park. They have both had surgery this year at the vets, so maybe their immune system is low, but i just dont know whether to use the natural products now or rebath them in the demadex again.

Hi, I have a 10 yr old Bull Mastiff and 7 year old Great Dane Cross. The bull mastiff has itching and hair loss around his face, and legs. Now my great dane has started scratching and has bite marks all over her belly and legs, and because she is white, her skin is now pink and red. The bull mastiff has had a skin scrapping (2 now and still negative), on yeast tablets, prednisone, and antibiotics, as his face is now infected. I have washed them in Demadex, we are now scratching as well. Have washed all dog beds several times, and our clothing as well. The bull mastiff is a bit better, but great dane is still scratching. I have read about using tea tree, borax, apple cider vinegar, oatmeal wash, hydrogen peroxide and now very confused at what i shall do next. This has been going on now for several weeks. I would appreciate any advise please. I still dont know if it is mites, or mange
