Monistat!!!! Womens Section @ pharmacy.... WORKS....
#1
Make a homemade ear solution to clean your dog's ears. Mix three parts white vinegar with one part water and put several drops into the ears with a medicine dropper. Clean with gauze and wipe dry. Vinegar is naturally acidic, which will help control the yeast.
#2
Apply some Monistat vaginal cream in the dog's ears with a Q-tip. Be careful not to go any further into the ear than you can see, so you don't cause any damage to the ear drum. Apply Monistat twice a day to clean dry ears.

I'd use the vinegar/water mixture and wash out the ear 2-3 times a day with it.

You can add alcohol and a touch of iodine to the vinegar solution incase you have any other ailments.

vinegar and peroxide 50%-50%. I use it once a week for general cleaning, 2-3 times for really dirty ears and usually dont have any trouble with yeast infections. Only drawback is that the dogs smell like a pickled beagle!
