Ivermectin
You can purchase this at any feed store. This is a clear liquid that looks like water. It is labeled Ivomec 0.27% injection for grower and feeder pigs. You simply apply it the same as you do Frontline Flea medication. 200 Micrograms placed between the shoulder blades of a cat. This is a tiny amount! Do Not Use A Needle!
DO NOT EVER GIVE A CAT MORE THAN 300 MCG OF IVERMECTIN FOR ANY REASON! Never use on kittens less that 5 weeks old because of the blood barrier in a kitten.
You can purchase 3cc syringes ( without the needles ) that are easily marked with a big M on them and you fill the syringe only to the M to have the correct dosage. If you cannot locate 3cc syringes with big M then fill syringe up by counting the 3 small lines from the tip of the syringe. Look at the tip and count 123 lines as you draw up medication. Again this is a tiny amount! Squirt between shoulder blades.
