Herbal additions aditsmniered orally can provide some relief as a home cure for dog mange. When selecting topical products, ensure you use only those approved for topical use. If your other pets have been in communication with the dog affected by mange, you need to treat them all at the very same time. If you do not the infestation may spread to the other animals.
