    Normally in a situation like that, Revolution would be a long-term thing to apply to keep the mites from coming back if she is prone to them. All dogs and cats have mites under the skin but they normally don't bother them unless their immune systems are down or compromised. This could be illness, stress, allergies, you name it, then the mites flourish.

    If it was stress that lowered her immune system to the point where the mites were causing problems, if the stressful situation is over and she hasn't ever had problems with mites before then you may not need to continue it. It's always a good choice, though, since Revolution is also a monthly dewormer, you won't have to worry about her getting worms or even heartworm and even ear mites, which those are very common in our kitties

    I didn't know that, thanks Jessika! Is Revolution something you can buy at Petco or is it through the vet only?

    Since it is a heartworm preventative you will have to get a prescription from a vet, however with the prescription you can buy it anywhere
