What is the best ear cleaning solution for my dogs?
I really like Virbac's line of dermatologic products, and their Epi-Otic is a great all-purpose ear cleanser for dogs. It is available over the counter, and you can order it from DrsFosterandSmith.com or Amazon.

Mia has another yeast infection in her ears. I have some left over ointment from her last treatment so I know how to treat it but I don’t know how to avoid it. Could I also use vetericyn wound and skin care on her ears? I haven’t exposed her to water
Hi there. No, you need to use an ear flush that is designed especially for ears - a regular antiseptic spray like Vetericyn will not dry as quickly, and may contain ingredients that aren’t safe for the ear drum. Epi-Otic and MalAcetic are both good options for routine ear cleaning that are available over-the-counter. Recurring ear infections are usually due to an underlying allergy problem, so I would recommend talking to your veterinarian about options for further work-up and treatment to help keep this from happening so often.

My dog gets yeast infections in his ear a lot because he has allergies, what can I order online to clean his ear and to get rid of any infections if he gets them? My vet told me I could purchase some ear stuff online but she didn't specify what and t
There are lots of ear cleaners for dogs on the market, so you definitely have a number of different choices :) My favorite preventative cleaner for dogs who are prone to yeast infections is MalAcetic Otic Cleanser - it's a good cleaning and drying agent, and keeps the pH low to make the ear canal less inviting for yeast and bacteria. You should be able to find it (or something similar) online from most pet retailers.

Any recommended ear cleaning products for dogs?
I really like the Douxo Micellar Solution. It is great at breaking up waxy debris in the ears, it is gentle, and safe if the eardrum is not intact. Here is the link to purchase it on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00G3DN3ZW/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1515718924&sr=8-1&keywords=douxo+micellar+solution&dpPl=1&dpID=318m8cDzvCL&ref=plSrch Thank you for using Boop by Petco!

Hi, my cockapoo often suffers from ear infections & I'm pretty sure she has another one now. I would like to know which ear drops to buy. I don't really want to have to go to the vet each time as it's a fairly frequent problem. Thanks
Unfortunately effective ear drops are on prescription, but your vet could do more than one prescription so you can buy them online. The combination of Canaural (with medication) and Sancerum (it is not on prescription and used only for ear cleaning) would be a good first line treatment. Aurizon or Otomax (instead of the Canaural) are more specific products, more indicated for resistant and more difficult cases. Aurizon, Otomax and Canaural can be used for a week each time. Sancerum can be used for routine ears cleaning.
