Ivermection

I read on another post that little black bits in the fur are sometimes flea droppings, and I have noticed mine have them too around the bum area. But, i have treated them 3 or 4 times with ivermection about 2 months ago when I suspected mites/fleas. Could the black bits be just old flea droppings or do you think I should treat them again?

Re: Ivermection

Also, does anyone know who to get rid of the little black bits, I mean once you get rid of the fleas/mites, it doesn't seem to come of.
