Hey! You can try Otomite Plus if you suspect that your dog has ear mites but if it doesn't improve, I recommend thar you take him to the vet to get checked out! -Dr. Lindsay Butzer https://www.1800petmeds.com/otomite+plus-prod11309.html

Hey! Itchy ears aren't always due to ear mites! Your dog might just have an ear infection! You can try a product like Zymox to help clear the infection but if it doesn't improve in a few days, I recommend that you bring your dog to the vet! -Dr. Lindsay Butzer https://www.1800petmeds.com/zymox+otic+enzymatic+solution+with+hydrocortisone-prod10622.html

Hey! While it is possible that your dog has ear mites, it might just be an ear infection. You could try using Zymox Otic Enzymatic solution to see if that helps. If it doesn't improve, I suggest bringing your dog to their vet to get the ears checked out! -Dr. Lindsay Butzer https://www.1800petmeds.com/zymox+otic+enzymatic+solution+with+hydrocortisone-prod10622.html

Hey! You need to make an apt with one of our vets online here at Petmeds.com to get Otic Mite for ear mites and ear solution such as Surolan or Mometomax to treat ear infections. Over the counter solution to treat ear infections is Zymox Otic Ear Solution, which I will like below. Revolution Plus for cats may treat some mites but may not kill ear mites. I hope this helps.

Hey! I am so sorry! I only answer pet health related questions. You need to call Petmeds at 1800-PETMEDS for them to help you more. Dr. Lindsay Butzer

Hey! You can chat with a Vet online on PetMeds and they can prescribe you Revolution to buy from Petmeds and get it delivered to your door. :) Dark brown could also be ear mites which the vet can chat with you about and prescribe Otic Mite to kill the common cat ear mites.

Yes you can! You can schedule one today! I hope this helped.

I would really need to examine him/her to be able to help you with this because a problem with the tips of the ears is treated entirely differently than an ear infection. Then an ear infection and ear mites are treeated entirely differently as well, so have your veterinarian check him/her out real quickly and they will be able to tell exactly what is going on Then you will know how to best treat it.

Usually under a week, so if the problem persists it may be something else (like an ear infection) that won't improve at all with ear mite medication.

There are good over-the-counter medications for ear mites like this Eradimite: https://www.1800petmeds.com/eradimite+ear+mite+treatment-prod3311.html They are not advised without a diagnosis though because most of the time, especially with dogs, they do not have ear mites - they have an ear infection that can be worsened by ear mite medication.

No - there are no home remedies that really work, but there are good over-the-counter medications like this one: https://www.1800petmeds.com/eradimite+ear+mite+treatment-prod3311.html

I would go ahead and have your veterinarian check him out - at his age, it is more than likely an infection not mites and the 2 are treated entirely differently so you need to know which to treat.

It totally depends on what kind of medication you are using - check the label to see if it is labeled for dogs and cats. Most are labeled for both, like this product: https://www.1800petmeds.com/Eradimite+Ear+Mite+Treatment-prod3311.html

It is really ideal for your veterinarian to make sure his ear drum is intact before squirting anything into the ear. They can also rule out an infection as the cause, which would be treated entirely different. If that just isn't an option at all, this is a good over-the-counter option for ear mites: https://www.1800petmeds.com/Eradimite+Ear+Mite+Treatment-prod3311.html
