Instructions
The Vet Route
Take your animal to the veterinarian and have him diagnose your pet with walking dandruff.
Purchase medicine from your vet. This may include Inceptor or Advantage Multi, to be given orally at your vet's discretion.
Have your pet tested for heartworms before going on these medications.
Give medicine as directed.
Flea Dip
Purchase a flea dip, preferably one with a lime-sulfur base.
Apply to your pet while bathing him, following instructions on the bottle or bring the animal to your groomer to have this dip performed.
Look for signs that the mites have resurfaced. However, a flea dip will usually do the trick.
Natural Remedy
Purchase a clove of garlic and cut off 1/3 of it.
Place in your pet's food. Having him eat it will be a natural repellent to walking dandruff.
Bathe your pet in cider vinegar, using 1 teaspoon for every 2 1/2 cups of water you use.
