Id of suggested treating with Maleseb Shampoo.. Did you leave that on for a short while before washing of?

Also thinking you have treated with lots of things in such a short space you could actually be irritating the skin and making it worse.. Think I would choose one and give at least a couple of weeks try .. Unless you could really see it was making him worse.. Best of luck xxx


Also I used to have staffies and our White guy used to suffer with bad skin.. Never was diagnosed as mange and we just used to use the Maleseb..

Hi, Our puppy has had Demodex Mites and our vet gave us Aludex shampoo and we bath her in it every 5 days, have done this for a month now and went to see vet last week & she had another skin scrape, no mites But we have to go back in 2 weeks for one last scrape to make sure & in the meantime we are carrying on with the Aludex shampoo. What did your vet suggest?
