How can you treat it if you don't even know what it is? if you're dealing with parasites, you need to know what they are, what to use for treatment, and what the dosage is. It it's an RI, here's a quote from another thread because I don't feel like re-typing all this.

If it's fungal, you have a whole other set of issues, and no, antibiotics won't fix that either.

Gotta culture to get a cure....
Bottom line is, you need to know what the issue is for treatment and in your case that sounds like it requires a vet visit.
