Go to your vet. The recommended treatment is actually a dip, not a shampoo.

First, has your dog seen the vet? Are you certain that it has sarcoptic mange, usually known as 'scabies'? What treatment did the vet recommend?
If you have not taken your dog to the vet, do that first. Itching and hair loss can be caused by multiple conditions, and you need to get a proper diagnosis first.
One of the best treatments for scabies is Revolution, the topical heartworm/flea control. Our doctor recommends three treatments, two weeks apart. Your dog's doctor may recommend something else.
The catch is, you must get this from your veterinarian or with a prescription from your veterinarian.
So...a vet visit is in order either way.
Good luck!

Your vet. If you have a solid diagnoses and your vet doesn't sell shampoo, some vets don't sell shampoo. Try Jeffers 1-800-Jeffers and they will send you a catalog they have hundreds of shampoos for all kinds of skin issues.

You can probably order it on line if your vet doesn't have it ... are you sure it's mange? If you do order it on line it'll be called mange rather than scabies. Dogs have mange people have scabies. Good luck.
