Hi Frito, I'm so sorry you had to give up your beloved cats. Fact is,I've contemplated doing the same thing but if Program is the missinglink I'll start them on it as soon as possible.

From what I have been able to get by talking with a friend of mine is that Revolution is used biweekly. Program is used biweekly and they are rotated. One week is Rev, one week is Program. This is for mites in which demonstrate Iver resistence. I would still like to do some checking to make sure this info is correct. If you will allow me some more time, by tomorrow I could have more complete info for you.

Thanks so much for researching this, Frito. The cats and I really

appreciate it. I owe you one!

I found this at another site (lost the site but here's the scoop):

" If you really think you have bird mites, then get your pet on

Revolution and Program both. They can work together well on blood

feeding mites, which bird mites are. The Program is an Insect Growth

regulator. It takes a few weeks but the mites that bite your dog won't

be able to reproduce and the population is severely reduced.

Meanwhile, the mites that bite your dog will die from the Revolution.

These things are not as good for Sarcoptic mites, which feed on flesh

and may not get any blood at all.

For that, Ivermectin seems better, if your pet has been affected for

long. Converesly, Ivermectin does not work well for blood feeding

mites. So, get your dog on both and he will help you get rid of these

things, since they like to bite him. Or her. This is one case where it

might be good to have your pet actually sleep with you. If they are

bird mites, you can put some Tanglefoot on your bedposts. It's a

garden product an oily substance in a tube that will keep them from

climbing up if they are living in your baseboards. It traps these guys

and suffocates them. Your bedposts are a good place for it, but won't

get any living in the frame of your bed. Those maybe try orange oil

like DeSolv It. Orange oils still work on mites. But think about

tenting the whole house, treating the dog with Program, and Revolution

and keeping him or her near. "

Unfornately, the author doesn't mention how often to administer...

Yes, Yes, Welty is the author of that post and whom I am trying to contact. I did want to add that one of them is also indicated for ear mites and sarcoptic mange. So in this instance, if you suspect flesh versus blood mites, or may think you have a combo going on, you have your avenues covered.

Also I did want to make a suggestion. I put an oxygen product similar to Opaline in their water, called cell food. They couldn't get enough of it, they loved it. I have also been hearing of late about vinegar water as well. It doesn't take a whole lot.

Nah, you owe me nothing, thanks is enough, I am here to help. I would like to see your kitties healthy too. I am just sorry I have been out of the pet loop and can't be of more immediate assistance. Thanks for your patience.
