&lt;p&gt;Check and recheck for Cheyletiella. I would almost guarantee the little beggar is there! Even if you don&amp;#39;t find it a shot of ivomec/cydectin may well still work miracles.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Just because you find one possible cause it is not safe to assume it is the correct one!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div style="CLEAR:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Would agree with that. I have never seen the walking dandruff sign, and I have watched a few times, sad as that may be!&lt;/p&gt;
