What are you using

I've had 1 get Demodex as a puppy and I used Ivermection orally over a period of about 6-8 weeks and it cleared it up.

There is a list of vets by state on the home page...

maybe there is one near you there.

Not sure where in CT you are

but if you are on the southeast side, we use Turco Animal Hospital in Westerly RI.  Dr. Tucker is awesome.  Good luck!  Onslow had it as a pup and he too was on oral ivermectin for a number of months.  They should be giving you a special shampoo too.
