Is Canine Frontline Combo effective in treating sarcoptic mange?
I am not sure if my Bernese mountain dog, STARDUST, has fleas or sarcoptic mange. So I was going to treat her sudden constant scratching at her elbows, ears and neck with FRONTLINE COMBO. But I can’t find any information on pack about whether it is any good for the treatment of sarcoptic mange. Anyone out there know if it is? Of course I will go to the vet but just wanted to try to immediately ease her obvious itching. Any help gratefully received. Love Robbie and itchy Stardust x x

You’re in the cats section ;o) But for cats, sarcoptic mange is treated with Revolution. It’s an off-label use of the product, but very effective for cats. I’m not sure about dogs. The ingredients in the Frontline are different than Revolution, so I’m not sure it would work. You probably want to hold off on applying anything, as any of those flea products can only be applied every two weeks, and if the Frontline is the wrong kind, it may make treatment by the vet more difficult.

Nonetheless for some owners of pets, the term doesn't just cover the fundamental pet supplies that they have to provide for their pets. For some animal owners, pet care products don't only include pet supplies like pet food, pet dishes and homes that are regarded as necessary in guaranteeing that pets live long and healthy lives.
One of the first things you have to do is to be sure that your pet is eating healthful and sensible food.
