Hi, This wild gray has been visiting for about a year. Late this winter she began losing hair like crazy, all over her back and down her legs. To make her situation more heartbreaking she showed up about a month ago appearing blind in one eye (clouded over gray) so her quality of life is not great and I wonder if that is related to the skin issue.

I've tried giving her Ivermectin in April (in a hollowed out peanut, it was a rare treat so she ate it), and it seemed to stop the itching but her skin is getting worse. A Facebook page dealing with squirrels recommended Revolution for kittens (without giving clear directions on use), but my vet won't prescribe for a squirrel. Is that a good suggestion? If so where do I get Revolution (if possible) without an Rx? And if I get it, how much to dose, over how long a time? Is there something else I can do? Any suggestions are welcome!

I should also mention that she may have multiple things going on. Some days she is VERY lethargic and sometimes even seems confused. That said, she has good days and seems Ok, other than the new eye issue.

I would really love some guidance on how to help this little girl. I know summer is coming but I doubt she'll make it through the coming winter if she goes completely bald (she lives in the Pacific Northwest).

Thanks in advance. Pictures atached.Name:  squirrel 3.jpg
