Revival Animal Health Vet Basics Lime Sulfur Dip 16oz

Update: this definitely works, my dog is much much better and happier. Fur has grown back and his bad smell has gone after just 2 treatments. Thoroughly recommend and so pleased we tried this. Just tried this, so I can't comment on the effect yet, hence 4 stars. Thought I'd share my tips though. I don't think I'll ever be able to look an egg sandwich in the face again. I'm so glad we did the bathing outside! I bought a cheap kiddies paddling pool, new pair of marigolds and dressed in old clobber. Bathing a 38lb chocolate Labrador is always a back breaking experience, but Rupe was very good. Don't attempt this on your own, you need a partner to hold the dog, we used one of those lampshade collars too. I did the bathing whilst my husband stood over our dog and made lots of jokes about eggy farts. Beware when you finish - your dog will shake! Put him/her on a lead and go for a walk straight away! The husband did this whilst I poured a big glass of wine! This stuff is really expensive and one hell of an exercise, but if you're at your wit's end and so is your dog then it's worth the hassle (I hope). Do it outside, have a helper and wear gloves. Hopefully it will work on our dog, I'll let you know if I can!

This has worked Miracles for my dog. She's been scratching like mad to the point she's lost some hair on her rump and has had a sore on her ear for weeks that she would not let heal. I've tried everything you can imagine to stop this. One treatment with this and within 3 days her ear has healed and her hair is growing back! She's noticeably happier and I am so relieved! I could not recommend enough! We bathed her Inside in the bath as the weather is so bad and although it stinks it hasn't stained the bath (phew). Really is worth every penny.

This product finally helped the almost 2 months of terrible itching my two Boxers had -which was definitely Not fleas- and everything else did not help! I first used as directed, shampooing and rinsing the dogs well and then applying this solution diluted as directed. It only helped a little bit. So next day I diluted it less and applyed it directly on the itchy spots and that worked great! Finally more quiet again, especially in the night, without their itching, poor dogs.

Messy to use but that's nothing I didn't expect..... hasn't dyed my white cat completely yellow, he's more of a cream colour! :)

This produced t is the real deal. We received it promptly and got to work straight away on our black lab retrieve who had congenital mange. She responded after six dips in as many weeks and is now on the mend. Despite injections, pills, more injections from vets, this is the only treatment that has cured her. Cannot recommend highly enough.

my dog had Dermox mites and after a lot of research I found this product it is very safe and kills parasites and fleas BRILLIANT WOULD BUY AGAIN !

😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊 will use this again .best thing I got for my dog used loads of other stuff..this is the only stuff that has work

Very smelly but good product

I’ll update this weekly for the next 6 weeks. Some background: I have an Aussie mix. For the last year she has been to the vet every 10 days. Multiple scrapings, never found mange. She has been constantly on antibiotics, antifungals, anti yeast pills, Creams, shampoos, wipes, sprays, homemade and prescription. Some made it worse, some worked for about a month. After being more than $3,000 in and watching her struggle and just be miserable. I was very much considering that maybe this was the end even though she’s so young as I couldn’t force her to live so uncomfortably (she would whine because she was so miserable constantly!) Her tummy, sides, paws, back legs, and ears were raw, hairless and red. Week 1.) It’s been just 6 hours and so far the redness on my dogs sides, belly, and in between her toes has lessened. Her swollen toes have gone down as well. She is much more comfortable it seems. The smell is strong, however it goes away 98% within 2 hrs. I used a cleaner milk gallon jug, filled it with water, added 4 tablespoons in (outside), hosed her down and washed her with a medicated shampoo then while she was still wet shook up the gallon jug and poured it all over her and used an old rag to rub it in. I then put a donut collar on her and let her stay outside for 4 hours (no rinsing the product off). I had some left over and poured it all over the porch (where she lays) and on the bottom part of her crate (where she sleeps at night). I let those just sit for about 30 min in the sun then dumped it off and let it air dry. Then washed all of her bedding on hot with a vinegar & essential oil solution (1:1 water & vinegar with 10 droppers peppermint oil) All this happened at 3pm, it’s now 9:15pm and she for the first time is resting comfortably with no whining and very very minimal licking / scratching (maybe a total of 90 accumulative seconds since the “bath”. Before she’d be scratching for 5-10 min every hour.) Her next one will be on 9/30/19 (going for a full 6 weeks) and I’ll come back and update then. Week 2.) This time I went with the recommended dosage instead of a more diluted one since I felt comfortable enough that it wouldn’t cause a reaction. 4 oz in a gallon milk jug, washed her before hand with an anti fungal and anti bacterial shampoo then immediately followed it with the lime sulfur dip. The hair on her abdomen has begun growing back, as well as on her sides. There is no more redness on her abdomen any more! There is still redness between her toes unfortunately BUT they’re no longer swollen at all! Trace amounts of redness can be found on her sides, however 75-80% has cleared! I have also been using the remainder of the mixture to soak her plastic crate bottom in and laundering her bedding in hot water with a vinegar and peppermint oil solution. Will update again for week 3. (Doing 5-6 treatments total) Also, the smell this time around wasn’t as potent, I suppose that’s due to just getting used to it / seeing the benefits my dog is having so I’m just too happy to care. Week 3.) I just learned to make this MOST effective you need to wash the dog with a benzoyl wash before dipping. I’ve been washing her before but haven’t been using a benzoyl wash. Will buy and use that in conjunction with this for the next 3 washes I have left. Anyways, one side of my dog is having very steady hair re-growth, no more discoloration. The other side is lagging behind, has hair regrowth but still has a couple red spots however the entire area is not red or pink anymore just a few straggler spots. Her toes are doing better (still pink inbetween), her ears are doing much better (no more pink), her belly is 95% better.

Used this on my 14month old husky ... demodex is completely cured now after 5 dips with a combination of ivermectin shots at 4days interval ...

I never write product reviews, but I am writing this to hopefully help someone else. This stuff is amazing. Hands down. If your cat has ringworm, you need to purchase this and use it. Yes, it stinks. Yes, it stains. Yes, it is wildly time-consuming and inconvenient, but this is the only thing that will absolutely 100% get rid of persistent ringworm. After adopting our kitten, his ringworm (which we were told had been treated and cured. Yeah right) absolutely exploded. We did everything we were supposed to do. Vet visit, isolation, lotrimin, oral itrafungol, anti-fungal shampoo… The only thing I wasn’t doing was THIS. Despite our vet recommending it, I put it off because I was intimidated by the smell and staining issues, and thought I could handle ringworm with other methods. Boy, I wish I had started earlier... Only when I started using this stuff did it turn around. And boy, it turned around FAST. Our kitten was battling ringworm for 6 weeks, and after introducing this, it was gone in 1. First of all, I want to explain how ringworm works. This will help you understand why this stuff is so important. Ringworm is caused by fungal spores. The fungal spores attach to the cat’s hair shaft and feed on dead skin. Anywhere your cat sheds hair is a potential source of contamination. A single spore can turn back into a raging case of ringworm if you do not absolutely destroy it. Lime sulfur dip has the power to penetrate and saturate the outer layer of the hair, reach the hair shaft, and do exactly that. This is what I recommend: Isolate your cat. This is a MUST. You will feel guilty, but it is medically necessary. You can still play with them while wearing long sleeves and gloves! The second the ringworm spreads to your other cats, kids, or you, you are in for it. If you DO get ringworm, don’t panic. There is an oral medication you can get at urgent care, and lotrimin is available at Walgreens. Humans are easier to treat than animals. Just remember to stay vigilant. Take them to the vet and get them going on Itrafungol oral solution. This is how you will fight the ringworm from the inside. Purchase a quart-sized spray bottle you plan to never use again, Sanicloth wipes, and a Wood’s black light. Dilute the lime sulfur dip - according to the directions - in the spray bottle. Designate an outfit you also never plan to use again. Every three days, put on that outfit and use the spray bottle to saturate your cat’s ringworm spots. I recommend the spray bottle because your cat will NEVER let you dip them. My cat was horrified of the bath, but didn’t bat an eye at the spray bottle. It’s much faster, easier, and less stressful. You can use lotrimin on your cat’s spots any days you are not doing lime sulfur, or you can choose not to. I didn’t, and it worked fine. I might recommend it just for the paw pads, though. Place the cat in a carrier after spraying their spots and sanitize the entire isolation room. I’m talking vacuum and wipe everything down with Sanicloth wipes EVERY. DAY. It’s going to take up your entire life for a little while, but it will work much quicker than if you do not do this. Routinely check your cat’s ringworm spots with the Wood’s lamp. Ringworm glows green. Even when you don’t see green anymore, keep up with the lime sulfur until all of the hair grows back. A single spore can set you back to square one, so you must ERRADICATE it. Any towels, rags, or clothing you use must be washed on the extra hot setting on your washing machine. There are some warnings about skin problems, but this did NOT irritate my cat’s skin at all! This stuff is the best. Our vet recommends it. I recommend it. I was hopeless until I used it. DO IT!

This immediately improved my cats ringworm. A combination of this and oral terbinafine pills from the vets made a drastic change in their infection. I was originally treating my one cat with miconazole cream & terbinafine pills but he wasn't showing any improvement. When I saw my other cat get a patch on her toe I knew I needed to step up my game. This made a much bigger difference. The application - I applied it while the cat sat in my shower with the door closed inside of a clean litter box (I have one they never used). This collected the liquid that came off of them and contained the mess & allowed me to reuse it. It also got the bottom of their paws on it, which was an infected area. This helped a lot. If I were to do it on them full body again I think a spray bottle would be a good applicator. For applying around their eyes I recommend using a cheap tooth brush. My cat has it surrounding one eye completely and this is how I applied. I made sure to avoid his mucus membranes, but at the same time I had to get it close as that's where his infection is the worst. I then put cones on them and gave them both churu. After the light towel drying so they aren't dripping they should be allowed to air dry for several hours before they groom. After applying I immediately ran the shower on hot for a while to thoroughly wash away the lime sulfur solution. Some smell lingered and I've tried cleaning with a vinegar solution, which worked OK, but there may be better cleaning products. After my cats dried they needed significant brushing. A very large amount of hair came out, which is normal after bathing. There was also some hair loss & dry skin on one of my cats ears as I accidentally made the solution a bit too strong the first bath. This healed over a few days, though. I did go longer between treatments to wait for him to heal, but the first bath alone nuked basically all of his ringworm and he didn't have any patches glowing under black light for 1.5 weeks after and significant hair grew back in that time. He now has a very tiny glow above his eye still, which I am spot treating every 3/4 days. I also treat his forearm that he rubs that area with during grooming as ringworm previously transferred there. My other cat needed 2 treatments + terbinafine to have her minor ringworm symptoms go away. My recommendation I haven't seen elsewhere - if you get significant amounts of this on any clothes or towels just throw them out. I ran mine through the wash AND dryer. This made the washer and dryer require heavy cleaning and the smell got on other clothes / my blanket which I ran through after. I STRONGLY encourage you not to do this. I'd say either use old towels or buy the cheapest towels you can find.

Our kittens either have ringworm, bacterial infection or allergies as they scratch constantly, but have no mites or fleas. We applied this wash (while protecting the face) and gave them some relief after the first use. We watched a YouTube video to learn how to best apply it. Kittens like warm water and gentle movements, so it went on with no dramas. Instead of giving them a second bath in it (you can apply this twice per week), we will top off with a small amount just on hot/itchy spots. What I am most impressed with however, was that the scent was nowhere near as foul as portrayed. It smelled like boiled eggs more so than rotten eggs and barely any scent remained after a days use and wear. Fingers crossed a second application will finish the job!
