Red odoriferous ear and vomitingQ: My 5 mo. golden pup had a really red ear with dark spots on it and a bad odor. i started cleaning it with alcohol and treating it with nystatin/neo/etc... which cleared up the ear problem. this similar ear problem occurs frequently in my 12 year old golden, and i always use the nystatin. is this correct, or should i be using something else? i've seen lots of products on here and i don't know what the ear problem is exactly, but the nystatin and alcohol seems to work. also, my 12 year old retriever never gets sick with the ear infections, but my puppy vomited for 12 hours. could this possibly be correlated to the red, odoriferous ear? thank you so much! A: The choice of medicines would depend upon what is growing in ear i.e. some dogs have mainly bacteria while others have yeast. i would have culture done at your vet to check what is growing so that best med can be chosen. what you are using is fine temporarily. also vomiting not related to ear
Flea products for catsQ: I lost my cat to old age several months ago. i have three doses of frontline for cats. the package says not to use on dogs. may i ask why. i have a 20lb dog and a 50 lb dog. i hate for these to go to waste. they are to expensive to go to waste. if i could use these it would help me greatly as i am on a very tight budget. thank you, terri A: Sorry we cannot advise using a product in a manner not dictated by the package labeling.

Ferrets and catsQ: I have 2 ferrets and 2 cats, all of which are inside pets, and have fleas. if i were to choose between frontline and advantage, which on would be better, or should i choose 1 for the cats and the other for the ferrets? A: I only use pyethrin sprays on ferrets or pyethrin shampoos as i dont believe advantage or front line is labelled for use in this species. either product is fine for dog or cat
