When I went to my Internist's today to pick up Grace's interferon, I asked my vet about using straight Ivermectin for earmites. She's going to formulate the exact amount of Ivermectin to use for earmites in my ferals based on the percentage I'm able to find, (for use in cattle worming). She would have given me the Acarexx, but being a specialty clinic they don't keep that sort of thing on hand. I'm really crazy about this woman. Btw, I went to our local feed store to get the cattle wormer and they didn't have it, only pre-formulated paste for worming. When I asked them why they didn't carry the straight Ivermectin, they told me some people were using it for applications other than specifically called for on the label. Huh, really? What a pain in the a**.

*You can also make your own Acarexx, using Ivomec & mineral oil. Again, check doses....*
