Can amoxicillin treat mange in dogs?

Answer

AntiBiotics such as amoxicillin will help with the infection only and it will not get rid of the mange mites. There are different kinds of mange; however Demo mange is most commonly associated with infection because the mange mite burrows very far & deep down into the hair follicle.

When treating my pets for mange, I usually get my products from a company called PetsBestRx. Here is a link to their website www.petsbestrx.com/mange

You can learn a lot from that site and also by calling them. My ziggy has had mange since he was a pup and I keep some products on hand to treat ziggy as soon as he has a flareup. They are not near as bad when I catch it early.

The PetsBestRx Mitactin works great when killing the mange mites fast and the products are non toxic and will not hurt Ziggy.

If you want to email me direct, i don't mind answering any questions you have.
