Immiticide is an arsenic based product that is more than likely what the vet would use to treat the dog if you chose to have him professionally treated.  No, you cannot get it nor would I ever suggest trying to use it yourself.  As for 1/10cc, any small syringe will work.  They should have them at your local feed store, or a TSC if you have those around.

You can buy small syringes that measure in 1/10.

Slick, I've always measured your dosage the same way as cattle. 1cc per 110 lbs. 55 lbs=1/2 cc. and mix it with either prop glycol or distilled water. Every month i give my big dogs 1cc mixed with  4 cc  of one of them and they are all clean. Never had any problems.

Slck, not 1/10 per month, 1/10 per 10 pounds per month. A fifty pound dog gets 1/2 cc, a 30 pound dog gets 3/10 cc per month, etc.

Good luck with it, hopefully the one with them don't get any worse and you can still use him.

Garlic contains thiosulphate, a chemical that is toxic to dogs.  I wouldn't make a habit of giving them that.
