Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
I would advise you to take
Tablet ivermectin 12 mg single stat dose. Repeat it after 14 days. Not to be taken, if you are pregnant.
Apply permethrin 5 percent neck downwards overnight and bathe next morning.
Tablet levocetirizine 10 mg twice in a day till itching persists.
Apply steroid cream like mometasone over affected area.
Get your pet treated.
This should help you.
Take care
