Has anyone tried PetgGld Mite-X Ear Mite Remedy before ?  I noticed
when I used it on my cat that the inside of her ears got a little red
and they even felt warm to the touch.  They did not look that way
before adding the meds.  I am wondering if possibility if they could
be an irritant to her ears.

Thanks

Ear mites should never be treated with OTC products unless confirmed by
a vet with a swab test. Many ear problems that people think are mites
are actually ear infections.

That said, it is quite possibly an irritant. It's chemicals that kill
mites. Are you following the label directions, or adding a little extra?
Even one drop too many can irritate the cat's ears. If the cat has
sensitive skin, any amount may irritate her.
