Vet Basics Lime Sulfur Dip- Concentrated Solution- for Dogs, Cats & Horses- 16oz

This stuff works wonders but my god does it stink. Got a kitten from the shelter that had ring worm. Used this along side an antifungal shampoo and it got rid of the ringworm fast. Make sure you do multiple treatments and use the entire bottle. I submerged the kitten up to his head and held him there for about 5 mins. Used a little tooth brush to scrub the parts of his face that had ring worm. After 4 weekly washes in this and antifungal shampoo baths every other day the ring worm was completely gone.

I seen results after 1 application however it took 2 applications to clear out.he has Scabbies Mites / Demotex mites . It WORKS!

First off, this stuff is the foulest smelling stuff on the face of the earth (well at least that I have smelled) It smells like your house got bombed with 10,000,000 rotten eggs and then baked in the sun on the hottest and most humid day of summer and then your windows had fans blowing it inside the house. The smell lingers in your hair, clothes and towels...you name it. BUT it does dissipate over time (hours-days depending on the item)Ok, now that that is out of the way....IT WORKS!!!! You have no idea the money this has saved my family! We rescued a stray about a year ago. She had some fur missing off her paws, I thought it was from fleas, got her flea medication and she was still up at night itching all the time. I combed her with a flea comb...not a single flea, no flea dirt...nothing! Figured it must be her food, Right? Wrong! But I didn't find out until I spend tons of money of every natural, holistic, grain free, vet recommended, 5 star rated cat food I could get my hands on. I thought the food would work for a while until her itching would cause sores, then I would switch her food and the cycle would start over again. It.Was.A.Nightmare!One day out of the blue her entire rear end was chewed, blistered looking and bleeding. I made an emergency vet appointment and my car broke down on the way there. Completely upset and having no car for a few days, I feared her life and did TONS of research. I found out she probably had ringworm and or mange and that the only reason the expensive cat food was helping was it helped her immune system but couldn't get rid of the fungus/mites which would explain the "breakouts"So after a bunch of reading, I purchased the Lime Sulfur Dip and dipped her in a bucket filled with a gallon of water and 1 cup of the sulfur. She hated it but I was able to keep her soaking in the solution for at least 3-5 minutes. I wore cleaning gloves and clothes I hated just fyi. When she was done, without drying her at all, I put her in a cat carrier that I use to transport her to the vet, and placed the carrier in the tub. I tried to check on her to be sure she wasn't licking herself and let her out when she was dry enough to stay in the bathroom without staining anything.I did this weekly for three weeks and then did every other week for two more times. She still has a small (less then dime size) rash on her cheek, which I am now using another product on, one that I squirt directly on her called Vetericyn (also available on Amazon) that also works wonders! And probably the only reason it stayed on her cheek is because that is the hardest place to get when dipping a cat while trying not to get it in their eyes, but other than that she is ALL cleared. Her hair has has completely grown back and is now even thicker on her sides than it's been (b/c she would lick constantly) I couldn't believe how amazing this stuff is!With all of the information I read about cats and ringworm, I found many people were spending upwards for $30.00-$75.00 per dip from a vet. Plus that doesn't include the regular vet cost. If you can deal with the smell and some scratches then do not hesitate buying! It has saved me a tremendous amount of money. I'm not saying don't go to the vet, but if their solution is having you come in weekly for a dip...do it yourself! And yes, I also believe this should be the first go to if you suspect your kitty has a fungus, you may not even need the trip to the vet! As a matter of fact, I would never take in a stray now without just dipping in in this stuff as a precaution. It's great just to have on hand, especially since if you order this online, like I did, you have to wait for it to arrive and depending on the situation it could be a ticking time bomb so just order this is you have pets or deal with strays on any level.Now getting the ringworm out of your house is another story! Athletes foot spray over the entire area the animal uses (luckily mine was just in a bedroom) and a good rug shampoo over that after a few days along with washing bedding, clothes...anything the animal has touched in hot water and bleach if possible is recommended. Hope that helps!

Warning: Sulfur! Yes it smells like the Devil himself has passed wind in your dog's bath. Another warning: Yellow! I just thank the Lord above that my dog is black and not white because I am convinced he would have turned yellow. So if you can get past those two little details for the sake of your mangy mutt, you will find that this is an excellent product. Backstory: We adopted a little black mutt off of death row last fall and he had Demodex. He had also had a very hard life, we speculate he might have lived with a homeless person because he walked right next to us without a leash and was well behaved but obviously not well cared for. I hope the person that owned him before is okay and doesn't miss him too much! But I digress. Anyway, due to his unknown medical issues and advanced age (7? 8? 9? Definitely some gray in the muzzle) we weren't sure we wanted to subject him to Ivermectin right away but he clearly needed skin relief. Frequent baths with medicated shampoo, ointments, a homemade essential oil salve and good nutrition for probably the first time in his little life did him some good, and we tried Bravecto. It wasn't perfect but seemed to work--he went from virtually hairless to pretty furry. Then in the spring he started losing fur on his neck and getting the characteristic crust again. Darn mites! He's just too old to really fight them off. So we decided to try one more thing before medication--benzoyl peroxide shampoo and lime sulfur dip. It worked! My dog is so much more comfortable and happy now that we use this regime. Use the warmest water your dog can stand and soap soap soap for at least 20 minutes--I bring my ipad and watch Amazon Prime video while I scrub. Then rinse rinse rinse to be sure to get the soap out and open those pores--again with warm water. Even better if you heat the room. I use the master bath and even though the dip smells literally like Hell (speculating here) it dissipates and this way the dog can sit in the tub until all the yellow runs off him and he's pretty dry. Use a towel you don't care about because it will be stained yellow :-) Do this several times within the next few weeks because after you flush out the nasty adult mites, the new hatchlings will come along. I recommend at least three times within three to six weeks to be sure it's all gone.

This stuff smells horrible but it works. And quick. I am not earning any money of this review. I want to help others who are completely lost. I mix it and put it in a spray bottle and I spray the whole entire body in the morning before I leave for work. I have been doing it for 7 days and look at the difference in my photos. I hope this helps others. I used it on my kitten and my dog.

I live in condominium setting. I feel the smell was too strong for atmosphere. I only used once, and unfortunately did not help at all for mites and fleas. I would have absolutely done second application if smell wasn't so strong. And of coarse I followed specific instructions. This might be helpful at a private residence. Not sure.

This worked very well for my kittens. Allowed me to sanitize my home while they recovered because of the ongoing affects of this treatment. Lasts up to 4 treatments. A gallon of this solution was enough for my 3 kittens and 3 small breed dogs.
