Francie 6,368 Posted December 23, 2021 Report Share Posted December 23, 2021 If you take the dog to the vet an weigh it,they will give you a prescription for mibemax. Ivermec is the best to give to the dogs half a ml,they be bouncing outa there skin,iv only ever give it to bull an greyhound crosses,I heard other dogs may have reactions,although if your not familiar with it,or injecting then just go with milbemax.
