I was grooming my Angora doe today and noticed that on her rump, her coat is thin and the skin underneath is flaky and has red spots. The outside of her ears are scaly as well, and the inside of her ears are flaky with aforementioned red spots.
Most people say that Ivermectin is best. I know I can buy Ivermectin paste at the feed store, as I use in once a year in my rotational worming of my horses. I may be able to buy it in injectable form, but I'm not sure. Do you inject it into the muscle, vein, or just under the skin?
I do my own vaccinations, so injections are not a problem.
Can this spread to dogs, cats, and people? Both Angoras are quarantined. Only the doe shows signs of mites.
Dog and cat are treated with Frontline.
