Farm store is fine....co-op or TSC. Remember to keep it stored in the brown box it comes in. Sunlight damages ivomec more than heat or cold.

I use the one for cattle, in the 50ml size. You don't need the injecting gun, as you will give it orally. you will want to give the 1% solution at 1/10 cc per every 10lbs of body weight. EX: 20lb beagle will get .2cc. I generally just squirt it in their mouth, but it taste's bad, so you can add it to a small amount of canned food if you want. I find it easier to just squirt it in the mouth.

Keith2210 where are you getting your Ivermectin 1%. You say it is $95.95 for the 200cc. I am paying more than that and would like to pay less if I could. Thanks

Probably 1-800-Jeffers. Good prices at Jeffers on all supplies. I have used them for most all my dog supplies for years. ;) Wayne
