how to treat mange on dog?

someone told me use used motor on a dog for mange!!? dose any know anything about this? wouldn't it kill the dog if it licks it off?
Answers:
Do NOT rub motor oil or kerosene on your dog. Mange is a critter that's gotten into you dogs skin. You need to take your dog to the vet they will do a skin scraping and look at this under a microscope to see what type of critter it is then they will prescribe treatments and medicines. You need to be careful too I'm not certain but I think you can be affected by this skin condition too. So please take care of your dog.
Go to a vet, now.don't try to treat with home remedys or it may become untreatable. I waited too long and even with professional care my beloved dog had to be put down. His hot spots were aweful and in the end he suffered.
What? Take him to the vet or give him to someone that will.
My former dog had a little spot of mange on her face. Do u think I would use anything other than what the vet told me, and how to apply? She lived to b 19 yrs old. That answers it!
ummmm.go to a vet duhhhhh!
The dog needs to go to a veterinary clinic and be quarantined until cured. Get it done immediately.
yes that .and a touch of kerosene mixed into the oil. not a lot, ow. two table spoons, per quart, of oil.that dog will not lick it would you?.works ever time.you put it on the dog. then rub the dog with a cloth. leaving a coating on the skin. not fur.but not a thick one, continue this for about ten days to two weeks, it will cure the dog,done that a number of times. over the years.good luck.
yes motor oil helps.he won't lick at it cus of the taste.you must treat his bed area too.do not let him or her slep on any kind of clothing this will cause mange.
Don't do anything stupid like rubbing motor oil and kerosine on your pet. You could damage it's sensitive skin, and it could make him/her very sick. Please go to your vet immediately.
There are acouple types of mange. You need to take your dog to the vet to determine what kind, for the proper treatment. The treatments are for the specific type and do not cure the other.Don't do/use any home remedy.
dip the dog in lindane there are also lots of over the counter dips
theres more than 1 type of mange which dogs can get. go to your vets to get the right shampoo.
