I have a pit bull with the red mange- reason for me knowing exactly what he has is its the breeder has 2 of his brothers from the same litter and they both have this as well. I at this moment have a tight budget and cannot afford to take my poor pup to the vet and decided to do research since this has to do with bacteria and mites I thought of peroxide and hand sanitizer which both kill bacteria and will hopefully suffocate the mites. I drenched and rubbed my dog from head to toe with peroxide and waited about 10-15 min then rinsed it off and then waited another 10 min and rubbed the hand sanitizer and left it on all last night. When I woke up this morning he was jumping and wagging his tail, he is still scratching and bleeding because he had gotten really bad, but I hope this will start to help until I try all the other stuff I have read on here. I cried my butt off doing this to him and he never once yelped or ran away from me, so I believe I must be doing something safe. If anyone thinks I might be harming my baby please let me know, or if any suggestions please help me, I don't want him to be put down..

I'm not an expert, but I'm not sure that this is the best combination. Why not just go with the recommendations of hydrogen peroxide and borax? It seems to be decently well documented, and looks like many people have had success with it. Good luck!

Please dont use hand sanitizer. It has an alcohol base and will be painful. If you follow the borax and peroxide solution suggested Im sure you will be successful and your baby will be thankful*
I've been using the remedy for mange because I thought my puppy had mange, due to excessive biting/itching/chewing/whining and screaming. She does not have fleas and I thought she was probably too young for allergies (at 9 weeks old) She has the hair thinning like with mange. I used the remedy once, and the next day she was screaming/biting/chewing again. So I used the remedy the next day, but with vinegar instead. This seemed to help somewhat... She didn't itch as much and her skin turned white again (instead of hot pink! )
I waited one day and then I woke up itching all over. I cleaned my entire house, thinking we were getting the mites. I mopped, vacuumed after sprinkling diatomaceous earth, washed her bedding/toys and blankets. I sprayed the mixture outside where she lays and plays. I dumped it all over my porch, where she lays. Today, she woke up screaming and howling again, itching like mad, two days after the last application. So I bathed her again. This time her skin peeled off. She has horrible sores all over her body now, bright red patchy skin and swelling. WHAT DID I DO WRONG? Did I use the mixture too often? She just keeps itching like crazy. Maybe it's not mange? I haven't taken her to the vet to make 100% sure. Any advice or help would be GREATLY appreciated. I am scared I am killing her and I feel so sorry for her with the pain and suffering I know she is in!! Oh, Benadryl (antihistamine) does help her sleep at night. Should I continue with that? Thanks!!

This is for Jenn from Memphis who wrote in on 11/03.
Hi Jenn, Wanted to respond to your post - and hope that your dog is doing better. Am passing along my experience with MANGE in hopes that it will help people and their pets. You mentioned you thought you were killing your dog bc of the dogs crying. I just wanted to reassure you that you are not killing your dog. The terrible crying is probably from the mange- the mites burrow into the skin and bite- basically driving your dog mad.
I have just finished ( I hope)a 10 month long battle with scabies/mange. For the first 8 months and 10 visits to the vet my dog was misdiagnosed and my bank account drained by thousands. During this time I tried baths, sprays, benadryl, antibiotic ointments, pills from the vet, steroid injections and the list goes on. NOTHING gave my dog relief- and during this whole time he howled and cried constantly unless he was busy eating himself alive and throwing himself against walls because he was so distressed. He lost all of his hair- skin broken, bumpy, raw, bite and scratch marks. It was terrible and I thought many times about putting him to sleep because he was miserable and until he was diagnosed I thought I was killing him.
As it turns out the vet trt for mange if caught early is pretty straightforward, effective, and inexpensive. Since mange is difficult for the vet to see unless they do a biopsy (scrapings rarely show the mite)a diagnosis is usually the response to treatment. The treatment is Revolution which is a topical like Frontline and Ivermectin. Then there are other washes and dips I am not familiar with. My dog was out of his mind- and would bite anything near him- including me. He was in so much pain he did not know what he was doing. The itching was also far worse at nite- I am told that this is bc the mites are more active at nite. If you can afford to go to the vet now and start these treatments you will save money in the long run bc you will avoid the secondary skin infections which will require antibiotics and further treatment. If your vet recommends treatment with Revolution and it is too expensive - Pfizer is the company that makes Revolution and they may have some financial programs available to help with cost. Good luck and don't give up. You can email me directly as well @melaniejsmith(at)cox(dot)net

It's my understanding, Ivermectin is very toxic? and because my kittens immune system is very low she might be at risk for just about any thing. I also understand that at one time there was a recall on frontline?I get my cats flea & tick treatments at a very busy popular herbal store. , I have been using the natural things for way over fifteen years for my self and my animals and hopefully no complaints as of yet. I thought the moral of this story was to try an get away from vets. Expenses?and conventional treatments? when all else fails then I might have to throw the towel in and go to my vet. For help. Thanks

i got neem oil from my health store and used a bot of neem oil in my dogs shampoo and washed her every 3days with it, and in just over a week the mites were gone.
Posted by Kathy A (Browns Valley, California, Usa) on 10/11/2010
I tried Ted's hydrogen peroxide, borax, and water solution last year on my 2-year old German Shepard after several visits to the vet with no relief. The mites went from her feet to her face (eye brows and ears). Nothing helped until I used this solution. This year the same thing happened again. I've been dipping her feet in a jar of this solution and stopped the spread so far. My question is.... What is causing this recurrence? The vet says it could be an environmental allergy that we will have to deal with forever.

I live on the Caribbean island of Dominica in the West Indies and have a local dog. She came to us with a low immune system and gets recurring mange. We have tried the chemical treatment but it was very harsh on her. We also tried neem oil without very good results. I took her to see the vet who works with PAWS the rescue dog charity and was recommended a local treatment. 2 liters of Seawater (or salt water) and ½ a Calabash. (Or bottle gourd or opo squash not to be confused with the calabaza) Scoop out the fleshy insides of the calabash and squeeze into seawater. Then add 3 fresh limes squeezed and mixed with the seawater & calabash.
Strain and coat the dog in the liquid. Do not rinse for 2 days and rinse and repeat the process twice. Fantastic results! No more mange and she started to grow her shiny new hair back as soon as the treatment finished. Very happy Ocho Dog.

News on The Calabash, Sea Water & Lime treatment. It worked so fast! Ocho has no mange now and her hair is growing back thick and fast. As she missed out on so much stroking since she was so sore she is wearing us all out getting loved up. I will keep posting the local Dominican remedies as we use & prove them. The population here is one of the healthiest in the world. It's famous for it's centenarians.
Hi my name is Cari and my blue pit has mange. He has bumps on his legs tail ears and snout. He keeps scratching at it and he's starting to loose fur.I'd take him to the vet but I keep reading that you spend hundreds of dollars on medication that really just brings it back up after you've used all of it up. I started the borax method about two days ago but I'm worried because he keeps licking his fur after. I read your post online and was wondering if you can substitute canola oil instead of vegetable oil, or any other home remedies that I could try?

About Theresa
Theresa from Minneapolis was born and raised in the inner city, always wishing she had been raised on a farm.
Her love for creatures great and small began at an early age, starting with caterpillars - which continues to this day, along with an interest in all insects and 'creepy crawlies'.
Theresa's interest in pet health started with a bird keeping hobby at age 14, where she learned from another hobbyist that the simple addition of Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) in a bird's drinking water kept fungal infections away; she was able to share this with her avian vet who in turn prescribed it to her own clients; Theresa was surprised to learn that she could teach her vet a thing or two. This important lesson - that each of us can be a teacher - was a turning point for Theresa, and fueled her quest for the knowledge held in lore, and remedies passed by word of mouth. That quest for knowledge continues to this day, as new and old remedies alike are explored. She may not have experience with a particular issue, but she will research it to the best of her ability and share what she finds freely, in the hopes that you can heal or improve your pet's health.

How To Show Theresa Your Appreciation
If you would like to thank Theresa for her helpful posts, she asks if you would please consider making a donation to one of her favorite local rescue organizations, or by making a donation to help the genius contributor, Ted from Bangkok, recover from his stroke.
Please try Ted's Mange Remedy - it works very well for most skin conditions as well as mange. Please also consider dietary changes - read the ingredients on your bag of kibble and if you see corn or grain it is time to change the diet. Corn has been directly linked to skin problems in dogs. Please also consider alkalizing your dog's drinking water by using baking soda, or also Ted's Borax Protocol for dogs; the baking soda and borax will help address systemic yeast/leaky gut, which is another major contributor to food sensitivities/allergies and skin issues in dogs.

I just wanted to point out that petroleum based products can lead to liver and kidney failure/problems in dogs. Some vinegars are made from a petroleum base. Read the label and be sure that it states it's made from grain alcohol. Otherwise this is a great atricle. :)

I have used apple cider vinegar for about four months on my dog and his mange problem has not gone away. These home remedies are a joke is there an injection or pill vets can provide to you?
I was told by a my vet that peroxide hinders the healing process. It was the first thing I did for a bite my dog had from a fight on Christmas Eve. Could not get help until the day after Christmas therefore infection had set in. She is okay now.
One of my two dogs (Rex) has got Sarcoptic Mange and has probably infected the other one by now. Unfortunately Rex is allergic to both Ivermectin and Amitraz. We live in Malawi and those are the only drugs available. I have now been able to get a lime-sulphur dip but it is for plants. The active ingredient is polysulphide sulphur 320g/l. Can I use that? If so, how should I dilute it? If not: what can I do?
The other dog, (Pumpkin) apart from having been infected with the mange, is allergic to I don't know what. We suspect it is something in the garden. (The dogs stay outside.) She has wounds on her paws from chewing and red spots, like pimples on the soft part of her belly. The vet here recommended cortisone in low dosage given daily and ongoing. The other vet here suggested anti-histamines. On top of that we have been washing the paws regularly and applied antiseptic cream but none of this really works. I am not happy about that as I think she can't be on pills forever. I have now heard about homeopathic drops that might help but don't have a name. Do you know about these? Or do you have any other suggestions? Please help, my dogs are in really bad shape! Thanks a lot

My puppy mill rescue dog has had demodectic mange all of his three years since I've had him when he was 2 weeks old. I took him to a couple different vets when one treatment would fall then to the next. And here's what I'm learning after I almost lost my dog after what was diagnosed as overdose on ivermectin-which by the way is great for ear mites and the mange, caused my dog to go blind and paralyzed within hours of the new refilled dosage of ivermectin-any treatment for demodex mites are temporary only because it will start taking over your pet's skin because of the weak immune system. So whatever works, great. Keep On that track until it doesn't work, go back to something that used to work. It won't cure your dog, but will make it manageable.
All blood born living things have mites. All of us. It is when our immune system spirals the mites develop in massive amounts and create havoc. Now, there are other forms of mites, scabies, this is not immune system born and is highly contagious as I understand the research. I have read most of the posts here, and one suggesting nothing works......but this post was related to "yeast infection" this is totally unrelated to "mites, " "mange, " I know I have both experiences with my clan. For sure a difference in how to treat both experiences. With yeast infections, I find Selsum Blue shampoo works great killing the yeast. I am going to try the ACV for the mange my Pitty has and I will update her results.
Was wondering where you are having the mites on yourself? I'm dealing with something on my hair, not sure what it is but dermatologist isn't helping. I have 3 dogs and 2 cats. Thanks for any information
I need help to cure my baby's severe dry skin and lost hair, she's a 4 month old Pug, I trie to put Vitamin A&D or Vaseline on her skin she has this bumps on her skin (like pimples)so please how much of ACV CAN I USE to cure her mange?

It does not sound as if your pub has mange. Pustules/pimples are typically associated with staph infection. You would do well do give your pug a dip in Ted's Mange Remedy, as an initial skin cleanse, and you could follow up with a few more dips to get the skin infection under control, but too many dips will only dry her skin out even more. You might consider coconut oil on her skin to help with the dryness after you dip her. I have found that skin troubles are directly related to diet - what are you feeding? Look at your dog food bag and read the ingredients - if you see corn or grain in the list then you might see great improvements by switching to a grain free diet. I also suggest you consider Ted's Borax Protocol for dogs and also alkalizing her drinking water with baking soda. If you can switch to a grain free diet, and then fight the yeast from the inside out via treated water, the topical skin treatments will be more effective.

in addition to tea tree oil, oil of oregano is extremely toxic to cats (my friend found out the hard way, thankfully the cat survived) Is great in treating warts on dogs - just one drop does the trick - but do not put even one drop on a cat, will burn a hole into their skin and make them sick systemically.

Mange
I am in rescue & with 8-9 dogs most of the time I run into all kinds of problems. I have had serious side effects from meds so- I have mostly gone natural.
My Benji got ringworm 4 years ago & then mange & bacteria infection. Got rid of the RW but for 4 years the mange & bacteria has come & gone every few month. Yes I tried the borax 7etc & it works but he kept getting it back. Finally I insisted on an allergy test.The vet said no way is that the problem but i INSISTED!!!!!! Sure enough he had lots of allergies & mostly foods. I had him on a really good holistic dog food. BUT His allergies were beef-fish-barley oats- potatoes - sweet potatoes- lamb - grass- dust mites to name a few.
I immediately changed foods. He now gets chicken & rice only - no perservatives & no treats unless they are chicken. Guess what he has been great for 6 months - back to his old self. Yes he has scars & always will as he had it so bad he bleed all the time from the sores. But this was the culprit. So if you have skin problems check for allergies - ivemectin & antibotics for 4 years without stop. That's not good.
I also sprayed him with collidal silver & it also works.
Posted by Ladybug (Houston, Texas) on 12/07/2009 ★★★★☆
I am currently visiting family in Houston. The neighbor has 3 dogs (1 year old puppies) with mange. I am a colloidal silver user and I have my own machine. I am currently making up 1 quart batches for neighbor and they are applying to dog's skin and putting solution in their water and food. After 1 week, the skin is looking better and they are not scratching as much. Will be here 3 more weeks and will keep up with this treatment. If colloidal silver not available, I was also told that using just straight organic vinegar is also effective along with baby oil on inflamed areas.

Cat mange cure:
I rescued a cat with mange and struggled with it all summer. It seemed cured but kept on scratching, then my other cats began to catch it. I tried everything, advantage, hydrogen peroxide, Scratchex, ACV, essential oils.
Then last week I heard a doctor on the radio talking about Oregano oil to cure upper respiratory symptoms. I bought some tiny oil caplets, and in desperation, gave one to my cat with mange. In two days it's totally on the wane, no more scratching.
The vet only med, Revolution, is a heartworm med, Intervectin that acts from within to kill the mites. That's what gave me the idea to give them Oregano Oil, and it's been immediately effective. When they have mites on their face you cannot treat with other things, and bathing is definitely something they hate. This seems to be an immediate cure.
Posted by Pam (Newland, North Carolina) on 12/01/2011
omg I just realized something, I have a beautiful but now miserable and no hair on the face 15wk old german shepherd pup I saved. He was born with mange contracted from mom and had 12 littermates. He had been treated by the vet before I got him and wormed and the mange at that time was only on the face (3 weeks ago), he was clearing up and doing great, hair growing back, everything, I had to give him his 2nd worming pill last week and now he is so much worse! Duh, could it have been the wormer that caused his reversal? I'm thinking maybe!
The pyrethrins is the main ingredient in many of your household flea killers. And most warning labels tell you NOT to expose pets to this chemical no matter where it originated. Who knows what may happen along the line later.
Just got to say, I have used Pyrethrins all over while outside a lot, for many years, on my legs, arms everywhere, I never had a negative reaction to it, I use it on my dogs and cats, with no problems, people say not to use on cats, but never had a problem, it is a 'plant' based insecticide, I am good friends with a Chemistry professor and he even agreed, unless the person or animal is allergic to it, it is considered safe...

WORKED TEMPORARILY
I did try the vapor rub and it only helps with the scratching and licking for about 2 hours then she sleeps so I guess it soothes her at night I apply it and Im looking for something else... because she walks around stinking like medicine....ewww....but shes not scratching for awhile and can sleep because I think it cools her down with the medicine.
I'm 56 and I remember being 8-10 years old and my dad bring home 5 gallon buckets of used diesel oil to be used to help treat any dog we had that developed mange. He would mix powdered sulfur he got from a feed and seed store (in the 70s) with the diesel oil and coat the dog, neck to tail in it. It never seemed to burn them like mange meds did. the oil helped the sulfur stay on longer thru all the running thru the bushes and rolling in the dirt. about 3-4 days later he would repeat it and that's about all it took. Their hair started looking better and it allowed the new hair to start growing in. The diesel oil, he said, had sulfur already in it so he could of used just that. My dad said the machines used up the parts of the oil that could hurt the skin and left behind the best medicine. He added sulfur just for good measure. If you use the motor oil you keep after you change oil in your car, it is the same thing, but probably needs a little sulfur added. We also add the store bought mange med to the first dipping just to have the extra push
Hello, I have quite a problem, my dog about 6 weeks ago was starting to bite a lot at his paw and had slight itching on his hind leg not bad but slight i was taking him in for his regular check up and mentioned it to the vet , she said he had try skin and some skin irritation and put him on predisone and a anti-biotic, it seemed right after that it got much worse, funny thing i started itching myself a bit especially under my arms and stomach,.
Well my dog really got bad to the point he been bleeding a bit very badly itching has bald spots on his paws and hind legs and his stomach is really raw .I took him back to the vet today first thing she thought of was fleas, i thought this might very well be due to the fact im now itching a real lot and have a rash under both armpits. She combed him and said no he don't have fleas and just said he has bed allergic reaction or dematitis gave him predisone and a different anti biotic.
Now after reading on here I came across scabies and mites and it is exactly what i believe is going on, the other thing I noticed with my dog which never had before if i scratch him on the back his hind leg goes like crazy in an itching motion which i never noticed before until the last few weeks , well it said on the site that is a sure way to tell if he has mites.
Now I also read that the dogs immune is probably weak if he gets mange, now this may sound weird but i developed electrical sensitivities a few yrs ago after moving into this new place i wa much worse put on alot of weight shortly after that my dog put on alot of weight too i think the EMF here is bad I feel that may have weakened his immune system I thought i read awhile ago on this site about products for EMF is there anything you could recommend for that?
Posted by Diamond (Salisbury, Ma.usa) on 04/02/2011
Derek; If you go through all these pages & many messages you might come across what you are looking for via someone elses posts where some thing will work for one & maybe not the other, why not give it a try, I did I found eveything I needed and then some and every bit has helped.
Other than that I do not do conventional meds. So why would I want my pets submitted to these new experiments? ;o) good luck
Great site! I did the dip regimen then vet wanted to do Ivermectin, which i thought tooo toxic & only 50% chance cure (plus $500+). Plus hair mostly grown back, but still scrappings showed the little buggers.
I went to Dr. Kerry Brown, homeopathic vet. Lucky closeby. He's trying "Kool Kan", Chinese herb tabs to build immune system, an a high strength flea collar, as the couple bare spots were around neck. Seems to have stabilized and checking monthly.
I will try the ACV or the benzoil peroxide this weekend--as see vet again Monday---and will see if this helps.
I have 2 large dogs - a 100 lb Golden Retriver and a Newfoundland puppy. Both have long hair. I cannot lift the retriever into a bath. The puppy came with small "bumps" @ age 7 weeks. I thought they were bites from playing with other puppies. Then I noticed scratching - My vet said "dry skin" 4 weeks later I took him to another vet for a 2nd opionion. He said probably lice under all that fur. He was given Revolution. 3 1/2 weeks later - my Golden is biting himself until he bleeds. Another vet at my Vet's office did a scraping on the puppy and found nothing. He put both dogs on Antibiotics for 10 days and stopped the benedryl. Within a week I had to put them back on the benedryl. Still both biting and scratching. Golden now has a clean but on one side and a rash. I have gien them both 2 doses of Ivermectin, scrubbed my home with bleach, removed all rubs, washed all bedding and they are both still scratching and biting. Given the size of these dogs, what can I do??? The Golden will be 11 in October and is not in perfect health. The puppy is now 4 1/2 months old.

Years ago, I had a kenneled Dachshund become mangy. I used Herbettes For Pets - had to order it from California. Tucked it into gooseliver and fed it daily to all my Doxies, and it cleared right up and haired over. The Herbettes also got rid of worms. Good stuff. Kind of expensive, but worth it.
I forget which type of mange it was, but the vet said it was sometimes incurable and gave me something like wallpaper cleaner to plaster on it after a DAILY bath ! I skipped the bath,and the medicine which I tho't was hopeless, and the Herbettes cleared it up. It also cleared up the eyes on a Toy Poodle. The vet had tho't an operation would be necessary, but it wasn't and the eye returned from foggy to normal looking.

Sarcoptic Mange: I think our Shetland Sheepdog has had mange for about a year. Took 3 separate visits to the vet to get it diagnosed and he has put her on Invectin. It appears to be killing her. I have printed out about 20 of your home remedies and we will start immediately to see if we can save Scout's life. I will let you know what, if anything, has worked. This site has given me some hope.
Damned sure will. That vet needs to do a lot more research. My friend didn't have a clue either. She gave Sammy just a little more than a pin drop.Sammy came to me was running into the wall, cabinets trying to tell me something was very wrong. It causes the brain to swell. He was totally blind just over night. Almost killed him. Lucky we caught it in time!!! He spent a week at Dr. MC Brides clinic. Mc Brides clinic is in Burnet Texas.. This man is a genuis!!!!! Have your vet call this man he'll give him some very important information. Frankenstein of the Veterinary World. I have had lots of people tell me stories about him before I was even born...
Thanks for the insight. My 1 week old puppies are experiencing harden hair spots. It might be mange, but I'm not sure. We are going to apply this home remedy and see how it works for them. Thank you very much.
This remedy has worked for me over the years. I found it in the early nineties because I adopted a stray kitten with the mange. It was more like the little terrorist adopted me actually. I began to notice the rapidly expanding hair loss and his discomfort and listlessness after a few days and since I had grown attached to him, decided to research the cure. I found a recommendation for garlic oil somewhere, I don't remember now where but I tried it. I would saturate him with it every other day and leave it on. It worked. Within one week I could see the difference. In one month the problem was corrected and his fur black and shiny. I used it on a friend's dog with the same result. Amazing. If you can't take the garlic smell use Kyolic. Works just the same.
