Brief Answer:
5% permethrin lotin...

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I do not know if those mites are from the dog or from other sources. But I would use insecticides to get off these infestation. 5% permethrin lotion is an insecticide available for human use. It should be applied over night before washing off. Similar insecticides are available for veterinary use. You can ask an veterinary expert about it. There are no experts on this forum or at my hospital for curb side consultation, hence I do not know about those.

I suggest you use the permethrin lotion and shampoo after you treated your pet. You should proceed to clean the bed linen, all your clothes and then your home.

This plan of action might work. Please consult the related specialist and discuss about it.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you need clarifications.

Regards
