HAPPY JACKSardex Mange Treatment for Dogs – Odorless & Stainless Itch Relief for Skin Irritations Including Severe Mange, Hot Spots, Fungi, Allergies, Eczema (9.5 oz)

Worked really really well. Pretty sure my hound had mange. Kept it on my girl for 2 days and then washed off with dish soap (only way to cut through it as it’s an oil). She responded so well with it that her skin is healing and hair already growing back. Bought a second bottle just in case! The smell everyone is talking about is true. Smells awful but works wonders. Be sure to keep your dog away from anything you don’t want to throw out. The smell won’t come out of bedding we used for her even with laundering 3 times. Worth it still.

Thank you so very much! Started working immediately! Hair grew back in 7 days! Didn't smell great, but it worked great and fast!

Contains TOXIC TO DOGS ingredients. I’m out a large chunk of money for not zooming in to see it contains Petroleum distillates - an ingredient you would NEVER purposely expose your fur baby to. I have no idea why this company would use that or other questionable ingredients in their mange products. There is no reason to include them! This is Benzyl- just let it be that with a neutral and safe filler. Mites hate Benzyl, it kills them quickly. The only side effect can be skin sensitivity wherever the petroleum literally will kill your dog. I’m still baffled on why this is available for purchase and includes good reviews. Don’t be in a rush like me and read ALL areas on any product before you purchase and of course, use.

After agreeing with a family member to care for their two Yorkies for a month while they’re on vacay, I found out the doggos have sarcoptic mange. One dog’s skin was inflamed red and balding and the other had enlarged lymph nodes and an open sore on their back. Both exhibited black darkened patches of skin. After 1 week of using this topical ointment (used every other day applied with thick latex kitchen gloves), the itching has gone down, their hair is growing back and the sore is slowly healing over.The routine that’s working is: shampoo with veterinary formula antiparisitic & antiborrheic shampoo for 15 mins and washed off, mixture of 3 tbsp borax diluted with 2C benzoyl peroxide and hot water in a spray bottle to evenly coat fur (careful to not spray head/face) and left on to air dry for 30 mins, dry rest of the way with blow dryer, and ointment put and left on until next bath. This ointment is staining and has a sulfuric smell; I suggest it applied to your gloved hands and then to their fur in addition to crating the dogs during the duration of the treatment with pee pads. Ensure the area in which they’re kept is well ventilated, I had an air purifier on max during application and at a low setting all other times. Good value for the money and does what it says.

First off, let’s address the big thing everyone is complaining about: the smell.Reports of the odor are WAY overblown. It doesn’t smell like eggs. It doesn’t smell strongly of chemicals. It smells like a cross between Vicks vapor rub and mineral oil. Yeah, it’s not Chanel No. 5– but people saying it puts off noxious fumes are being ridiculous. It’s entirely bearable.Also, the instructions on the package aren’t very clear: you aren’t supposed to wash it off your dog. It’s a leave-on treatment. Apply once daily or twice for difficult stubborn cases or problem areas.Application isn’t a lot of fun. It’s greasy and messy and, if your dog is losing hair due to mange, it turns into a big mess.Also, you’re going to have to let your dog dry for AT LEAST an hour or they’re going to leave a big yellow grease stain on whatever absorbent material they come across.My dog found relief after a single application— and after a few more, his skin began to heal up and fur stubble started growing back.If you can’t afford a $400 trip to the vet where they do a skin scrape and send off for lab results (all so they can write you a script for a $30 chewable tablet), this is the next best thing.It’s not quick, easy or pleasant— but it’s not the ordeal many people here in the reviews are making it out to be either.

It appears to be working but the smell is so strong it stings my eyes.
