Hi ...
One thing though ... find a good vet to give you & your dog support ... a vet who is experienced and knows the various stages of demo mange and the appropriate treatment ... I suggest you go to the vet clinic in Medan Damansara ... and see the vet there (Dr. Simon) ... A good vet can make all the difference. A good vet will know exactly what to do, give you the correct advice and give your dog the right treatment ... A good vet will not frighten you unecessarily ...
The article you posted gives good information and advice ... but you will still need the support of a good vet ...
The important thing now is to start with the proper treatment asap ... don't try too many alternatives (sometimes trying too many things at once can cause as many difficulties as not doing enough at the correct time) ... If your dog has a bad case of demo, then (depending on the breed & age of your dog) ivermectin may be the best way to go to quickly bring the demo mange under control ... a good vet will know how to prescribe the ivermectin in the correct dosage ...
As for using Amitraz (mitaban) solution ... it depends ... cannot say without seeing dog ... again a good vet will know.
In the meantime, it will be good if you start doing research on proper dog nutrition ... find out all you can about the differences between a freshly prepared diet and a kibble diet ... the differences between the different types of kibble ...
Work out your budget and time, and then make the best decision you can ...
Will be away for 10 days or so ... All the best to your dog and you ...
Cheers
