Ear mites in dogs are mainly caused by ear scabies, so they need to be treated with deworming, along with ear wash and ear mite medication. Owners need to use an ear wash to clean the dirt out of their dog’s ears and then put in drops of the treatment medication. Generally, the ear wash is placed in the ear and gently massaged for 1-2 minutes, then the dog is allowed to shake the dirt out and the outer ear is wiped clean with a cotton swab or paper towel. Then use ear mite medication to treat your dog by dropping into the inside of the ear, using the same method and gestures as for ear drops. After cleaning is complete, it is recommended to put an Elizabethan ring on the dog to avoid scratching.
