Fortunately, none of my 5 cats has ever been infected with ringworm fungus. Through working with infected cats at shelters, I've had ringworm 3 times and used over the counter anti-fungal creams to cure it. I once worked with a shelter vet tech who applied bleach to her ringworm lesions-she thought it worked faster than the anti-fungal creams. (she would never do that to a cat!) At shelters, cats are sometimes shaved to speed treatment, and are dipped in a lime sulphur treatment. Please see the link below for more info.
i would use an antifungal cream since ringworm is a fungus.
I used a cream and a spray for athlete's foot, (I think it was Lamisil) but it didn't work as good as the stuff my doctor gave me.
Last year I had REALLY bad ringworm. I went to the doctor, and they gave me cream, pills, and shampoo. The ringworm was gone in about 2 weeks.
So it's best to see a doctor.
yeah, it helps. .the best remedy though is direct sunlight which will kill it much faster. .over the counter stuff should work fine though. .i used both and it was gone within a week
I bought anti-fungal cream at Walgreen's , my sis had it and it cleared up just fine. For animals I think a vet has to give them medicine . Hope that helps.
NO, I know they have stuff at wal-mart ...But I value my dogs life he's one of my best buddies..........To the Vet he goes to make sure its not something else along with it...
Good Luck
Yes canisten! It is an anti fungal cream and works really well.
