A member asked:
Can i get scabies from my pet?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: The infestation on a pet is by a form of scabies which is incompatable with humans. The only way you could get infected from this source is if you were profoundly sick or immunosupressed.

Yes: Yes, but it will usually go away because it is specific for your pet.
