Hi Sandy, so glad to hear that she is doing alittle better. Sure hope she comes through ok. We use ivermectin 1% cattle injectable on our herd for deworming and for delousing. We also do both at the same time and have never had any problems. We give it orally for the worms @ 2cc per 100lbs. and 1cc per 100lbs SQ for lice, mites and nose bots.Be prepared though when giving it SQ it does burn somewhat. Is it possible though that when you wormed her in Dec. you used a differant type wormer that the worms where resistant to? I'm thinking that if you don't see the lice then maybe it has something to do with the wormer. Not sure but it still wouldn't hurt her to give it SQ just to be sure. Something is causing her to become enemic. Keep us posted Sandy, I will say a prayer for her as well.
