Cures for scaly leg mites - Ivermectin drops?

[Montanacik]

My chickens have recurring scaly leg mites. I usually use a combination of kerosene and linseed oil to dip their legs in, which is very messy.
I’ve also tried A+D ointment.
Someone said they use Ivermectin drops on the back of their necks.

Can anyone verify this?
Where to find Ivermectin drops?

I would appreciate the help.

Ivermectin can be used to treat SLM. I'm not sure it will "cure" them, you may find that you need to keep up routine care and treatment from now on. A lot find that in addition to Ivermectin, applying oil or ointment consistently can be effective in keeping the SLM under control or even eliminating them.

You can find Ivermectin Pour On or Ivermectin Injectable at stores like TSC.
