how long is it between the 2nd and 3rd injection? is it another 10 days?
thank you

 

[Laura-CCC4]

That's the average. Each dose can be anything from 7-14 days apart, ten being the usual.

Weve got lice and easy to treat them with along with injections. The poor things think they are all sorted now...little do they know they have two more baths and 1 more injection!:{

I think you can use the child safe lice lotion on them too? I've used it in the past when Crackers came with unwanted house guests

Were not as subtle, we've been calling them the crawly kids!

My Lilly has lice and the vet just gave her one injection and i've not to take her back. How can this be?:{

I think, unlike mites, one should be enough to kill all the lice, they're not the same kind as what children get, yet the same lotion will kill the lice that you use on their head, as it suffocates them
