So...I'm 99% sure that Leo has mange (not sure which type) and has spread it to Lily. We are going to the vet Saturday, however, Lily is also supposed to get spayed that day. If she has mange should we cancel the appointment? I heard that dogs with mange shouldn't be vaccinated until it clears, so obviously her rabies vaccination is now out of the question.
Also, as my hubby would like to know, how much does it usually cost to treat mange? Right now I am using benadryl and hydrocortisone to manage the situation until we get to the vet. I think Leo got it from contact with one of the yard chickens...is that possible? I feel like there's little bugs crawling all over me (ick). Should I get treated too? I'm kind of freaking out @[email protected] but am trying to deal with the situation the best I can from reading others' posts/threads on it.
