Dog Eaten Alive by Flies . . . Help!

[Kenneth N. Hamamoto]

Hello,

My dog's ears are being attacted by flies. They are getting to his ears,
breaking skin, and sucking the blood. How do I either get rid of the flies
or prevent them from breaking skin.

Thanks,

KH

Bring him inside. I'm supposing you use screens, fly swatters, fly strips,
or insect killers to keep the fly population down in your house

Are you sure that they *are* flies, and not some other kind of parasite? The
mosquitoes around here can get pretty nasty, but never so bad as bringing
him inside didn't get rid of them.

try some swat. you can get it at a tack shop. it's got a healing agent and
a fly repelent too. I worked on my dogs ears when he had that same problem
