In fact, I used many things that I found on the internet, when they didn't work I took antifungal medication. Itraconazole doesn't cure me, even though I had pulse therapy, 6 pulses, then continuous 3 month therapy too. Lamisil the same. Two months of medicatuon brought no change. Only aloe vera helps a little, makes my life livable, and tea of sage. Essential oils relieve the itch and also made my hair much thicker and helthier. I leave them all night on my head and my hair is unbelievable. Still, my problem is there, it is caused by microsporum canis. The same pathogene organism was found on the kitten.
