Go to the Jeffers websites, pretty sure it is just jefferslivestock.com or something pretty close to that. They sell Ivermectin injectable, it is in the cattle section, 1%. Pouring on wormers simply don't work, though you can give the pouron brand drugs orally to goats. Just like when you worm a goat with Ivermectin 1% cattle injectable, you syringe it out of the bottle but remove the needle and give it by mouth, 2cc per 100 pounds. Sounds like just the kind of shot you would like to give :) We do give it as a shot 1cc per 110 pounds subq for lice, mites and nosebots. We have not seen it work for these given orally. In fact when bringing in new goats, we not only give it under the skin for nose bots and lice, we also give it orally for stomach worms, all at the same time! Vicki
