Fox mange

One of my dogs recently had an horrendous hotspot outbreak that spread to the size of my hand within 24 hours. Ended up with veterinary treatment plus a good dose of Advocate for all and the assumption that it was fox mange mite that caused it to erupt so quickly, and sure enough I have seen an adult fox in the road that most definitely does not have a healthy coat and assumed this was mange. Last night I didn't close the door on the kennel & run I have for boarders / fosters and first thing this morning I found a young mange infested fox that had obviously bedded down in there.

Question is what to do with the bedding. What is the best product to spray on it before bagging it and ditching it, and what can I spray the kennel with in general to make sure there is no risk to the dogs.

Poor little fox - didn't look like life was too much fun bless it as it was even affecting its eyes.

1.you can stop the fox by bothering you byusing this tablet like thing which you can put in fox food so it can stop the mange.
2.for the beddding you have to change it or spray it with this spray they have at the vets.

hope this helps
