When I got Eden she had ear mites. We treated them with Surolan for a couple months and that did nothing. The vet kept telling me to retry because I likely was not doing it right (even though I was) so I finally just asked him to order Hexamite. I learned afterwards from the vet tech she has yet to see Surolan work for ear mites. Does anyone have experience with this medication for ear mites? Its $7 a tube vs the other stuff they carry for $22 and it contains pyrethrins (sp?) where as the Hexamite does not.

I heard a ton of great things about hexamite but im worried about the other cats grooming her ears. I just kepts her confined to the bathroom for 10 days while she healed from her spay I dont really think its humane to confine her even more time unless I absolutely have to

Suggestions?
