Very often, immediately dousing three times daily for five days the red spots with cider vinegar will cure this problem. Alcohol also kills the red mite spots, and I have found that soaking the dog in a solution of half apple cider vinegar and half water is marvelous for eliminating the little horrors. Otherwise, a trip to the vet will be necessary so you can be prescribed an adequate parasiticide before the situation gets much worse.<\/p>\n
