FJL: Lots on Google about this, even the mental illness studies. Seems to me, and I wonder if an oral treatment of X # ccs of off list Ivermectin would take care of this. Ivermectin was originally a worm/parasite treatment for horses/cattle but is now used quite successfully for dogs etc. to treat Sarcoptic Mange. Even more recent it is being prescribed by human Doctors to treat Scabies, another infestation from parasites. Both are different species of mites.
BTW ---has anyone noticed that "Advantage" 'Revolution" and "Frontline" are about the only medications anymore that will thoroughly kill fleas? Such old standbys like "Sargeants", "Hartz Mountain, "Farnam" etc. just don't do the job now. Seems so many parasites, insects have become resistant to the pesticides, medications just as many bacteria are now resistant to so many antibiotics. Scary!
