Dog Question: How contagious is demogafic (?) mange?  If the dog is on treatment, how long before they are not contagious to other animals

 

Hi Shannon,

Demodex mites are not contagious to humans or dogs under normal circumstances.

Normally it takes 5-7 dips at one week intervals to treat.  This depends on the severity.  Very mild cases can heal themselves.
