Rara Avis Lavender Lemon Skin Tonic is a 100% natural traditional remedy for insect bites/stings, mange, and ringworm. Naturally soothing and balancing, it is an excellent general skin tonic with many uses. For external use only. Do not use in conjunction with chemical flea or mange medications unless prescribed to do so by a veterinarian.

Recommended Use: For large areas, sponge or spray generously over the infected area. For small areas and bites, dampen a cotton ball with the tonic and saturate the area. We recommend applying twice daily, or as often as needed for at least two weeks. Feeding a raw, whole-foods diet and reducing stress is highly recommended.

Lavender Lemon Skin Tonic has been discontinued. I will post a home recipe for Lavender Lemon Skin Tonic here for those interested. Please check back soon for our new product: Mite-B-Gone Oil. My recommendations for Canine Mange can be found here.
