Yes, it is extreamly contagous. Even if people are Sarcoptes (scabies) in animals, the disease is usually self-limiting, so only temporarily itching. A race of human scabies, which is transmitted from person to person. The race of human scabies mite causes rash on wrists, elbows, or between the toes.

the best way to avoid scabies:

after touching your dog, you will clean your hands with benzoyl peroxide, thus killing the mites. Keep pets away from others, which also cmontact to this mite.

Very infectious! If you always start whelts red, go see your doctor! This is not really dangerous, just bite! Wash your hands after playing with him and do not let other dogs.

Yes, yes, oh yes! Hate the things! Fortunately scabies can not live and die on the dog and human, but Sting like a demon in the first place and for a few weeks. The excavation of mites and try to live on humans, but they die, and Ness is causing red and itchy allergic reaction. I come from a small stray dog and I ate. I bathed flea and tick shampoo, but since the nose is already dead or dying, I had to suffer until the bruises healed.

Scabies is a contagious disease to humans. If you get an itch, or makes the skin / bruising, immediately call your doctor.

Most healthy people to clear the infection on their own without any problem. However, infants, elderly persons and persons immune to any reason (immune, cancer chemotherapy, recent surgery, etc.) are much more susceptible to infection, the infection can go wrong with them. Make sure that these groups of people to remain away from your puppy, for now.

I'm glad that you by your vet checked him Puppy. Hopefully be able to clear in the shortest possible time. :)
