I think you need the injection 10 days apart.

Front line spray is very effective too .
Clipping will make no difference to the mites and will prob give him mud fever

kerilli - send me the PM!
My mare has mites - we've tried unclipped, clipped (for easier treatment access), frontline, dermoline shampoo, had the injection twice so far - no improvement

I am officially desperate and will try ANYTHING to fix this!

If you want I can send you a very very long PM about the dark art of pig oil and sulphur and hairies in general. Just PM and I'll reply.

A lot of people say (assuming they made the end) that it answers most questions they have.
