Help needed...piggie with bloody scabs
-
- My home, ruled by pigs!
Ya know it's really hard to say what did the trick. He had 3 Ivermectin shots, 1 topical treatment, 2 lime/sulfur dips and 1 Revolution application.
I did notice a big reduction in the scratching within 1-2 days of the Revolution application.
I know apply Benadryl cream a few times a day to the spots he still scratches.
The vet was trying to stick with one thing at a time because he said "then we won't know if the Ivermectin is working" and I personally didn't care what worked as long as something made the poor guy stop scratching like a madman!
When the 1st vet was on vacation and he went in for his 2nd dip I was able to get the other vet I use there to let me try the Revolution and the Benadryl.

Oh yay! Good going! Now after all that are you sure you really want to find him a new home?

That's wonderful news! I was hoping he was doing well and going to a new home soon. Another pic before he goes?
