I have two issues, both relating to horse and hound funny enough! :P

1st of my cob!

He is a gypsy cob, lots of fur...and i mean LOTS! and loads of feather not so much mane as hogged him over winter...We have mites... badly! I have tried powders, sprays, yet to try pig oil and sulphur on his feathers, but tehy are driving me mad, and understandably him!

Is there a shampoo i can get that will kill these things off!? Im at my wits end :(

2nd my Dog

He is a staffy who is near impossible to give a bath too! as he is so strong it takes 3 of us to pin him in the bath (i will be taking him to the yard to hose him down next time as have a nice sturdy pole i can tie him to!

He has fleas, badly, we have tried frontline, injections, bombs, powders, i have deflead the house, his bed, and anything he goes near. But the lifestyle we have he keeps getting them, they arnt little fleas they are massive! to the point you can count their legs and see their eyes and little tenticles! Im being eaten alive and he is being gobbled up!

is there anything else we can try!? i will be bringing the carpet up in my bed room and replacing with laminate but is there anything to try and help in the mean time, as hes so stressed out! i literally do not know what to do any more :(
 
for the cob either injections of dectomax or dermoline mite shampoo or deosect spray kills everything

for the dog, frontline isnt working well at all anymore on dogs or cats so take him to the vet to be weighed and they can give you this new stuff which is really good havent seen any at all so could be worth a go too... sorry cant remember the name :)
