Question by desperatemom: Help I think my dog has ear mites, I’ve been treating it with over the counter med from pet store but…?
it doesn’t seem to be getting better. The first day it seemed to help (4days ago i started treatment) but now it seems to be getting bad again. Is this normal? It’s only in 1 ear and I clean it out well and give him benedryl so he won’t scratch it but now the ear looks clean and the odor is lessened but it is very sore and he walks around w/his tilted to the side. I was wondering if anyone has any “home remedies” that might help.

It might not be ear mites. Ear infections and ear mites can be very similar to anyone not trained in this area. The over the counter meds for mites usually works pretty well, so if you’re dog is still having problems after 4 days of treatment, then I would definitely suspect an infection. You should take your dog to the vet and have it checked out. If it is an ear infection, antibiotics will be needed to clear it up.
