Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! Fluticasone is a steroid so it only relieves the desire to scratch. Mupirocin is an antibiotic. Mange is due to a mite. The above ointment may make the skin feel better but it will not kill the mites. I hope this helps!

Thank you for contacting Boop by Petco with your question about Bruno. I'm sorry he has been having problems with his skin again. Unfortunately we cannot give a prescription for these medications, it's illegal for us to do so without seeing him in person. You will need a prescription to get these medications, and in order to get that, you will have to take him into the vet. I'd make an appointment for him to be seen in the next couple of days. Best of luck.

I cannot see a wound on the photos of your cat, so I cannot tell you if Bactroban is the proper antibiotic to use for the type of wound your cat may have. Generally Bactroban (Mupirocin) is safe for use in cats. It may be a good idea to have your cat seen by your vet before applying ointment to the wound.

You can try this medicated spray once or twice a day on the affected areas. If after a week or so it is not looking better then he may need antibiotics to clear it up. It is really difficult for me to comment much when I haven't seen him myself. https://www.allivet.com/p-6677-douxo-chlorhexidine-micro-emulsion-spray-for-dogs-and-cats-68-oz.aspx?SearchTerm=duoxo+Auto

Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! I treat bacterial skin infections with oral antibiotics, medicated baths that get bacteria (miconazole just gets yeast) and since this is chronic I would recommend a prescription novel protein or hydrolyzed diet to rule out food allergies as the cause. I would also start an oral antihistamine and Omega 3 fish oils. I tell my clients with chronic allergies to expect to be on apoquel, a special diet, an antihisamine and Omega 3 fish oils for the rest of the pets life. If there is a pustule (white head) the Vet can culture that to be sure that the correct antibiotic is chosen. It takes 3 weeks or longer to clear a bacterial skin infection with the correct antibiotic, this requires you to follow up with your vet to be sure the infection is 100% gone before the antibiotic is stopped. The links below are some recommendations for products. I also like Nordic Naturals as an Omega 3 option I wish Lola Blue the best! https://www.vrshealth.com/canine-produc
