How To Diet While Nursing

Demodectic mange in puppies is passed on to them while nursing from their mother. How do you treat it?
It lowers their immune system. Vets say they can outgrow it. Besides expensive dipping weekly, what else can be done? They also get sick because of their weakened system. Diarhea and vomiting are possible. Does anyone know about the diet they need to help build up the immune system?
I did not agree with the one answer I received. So, I don’t want to choose it. The type of mange my dog suffers from is NOT CONTAGIOUS or passed on to other animals or people. Withdraw my question.
I know of 2 treatments for mange mites.
-The cheapest is LymDyp. It is a sulphur based solution that you can use on dogs & cats. You don’t rinse it off. Just put in on and let it dry, it leaves a yellow residue due to the sulfur in it. It is sold in a 16 oz bottle in concentrate & lasts a long time and sells for $12-$16 per bottle. I didn’t shop around to find the $12 price, but it is out there. I bought mine through www.petcarerx.com for $16. It is painless and the least toxic way to go. Mange is passed on to other animals in the household, and it thrives on them. Mange can be passed on to humans, but it does not thrive on humans. In other words, it is self limiting unless you keep getting exposed to the mites. In either case it is EXTREMELY itchy for you and/or your pets. You and your pets will scratch until you bleed, that is how horribly itchy it is. No prescription is needed for LymDyp. BTW: LymDyp is also a good treatment for other parasites and skin disorders. Cheap, easy way to go.
-The more expensive treatment is Frontline (the Flea treatment). It not only kills fleas, but also lice & mites. You can find it on the internet for $10-$15 per dose. The dose is based on your pets weight. It must be applied each month. It may take 2-3 months to get the problem under control. I also got this through www.petcarerx.com, but they are not the cheapest site around. No prescription is needed for Frontline.
