This afternoon I have noticed that she is really scratching at her head. And seems itchy. Her bobble head is markedly worse today. Could it be a parasite? I do not see lice. Maybe I treat her for both Internal and external parasites? She isn't eating on her own yet. I'd think anything at this point is worth trying. What are your suggestions and what medicine should I use?

I have Adams plus flea and tick, de and panacur c I'm my medicine cabinet.

I did give her a pretty extreme trim of her crest so she can see. But she is getting more annoyed by something on her ear area by the minute.

Can you get a photo fo the DE mix with Permectin - interesting I've never seen that before.

Look inside her ear to make sure there's no issue there like pus or debris, but I agree, treating her for parasites would be a good idea.
Pancur (Fenbendazole) dose is 0.23ml per pound of weight given orally. You give once then repeat in 10 days to treat Roundworms only or if you think she may have other types of worms, give for 5 days in a row.

I have panacur granules. How would I dose that?

I got the permectin from a neighbor. It is just a bag of white powder (de) in a Ziploc.

However, please check out this poop. This is the new. Is it worms?

silkies are prone to heat exhaustion so if she was in 100+ heat she may just need time to get herself back i would keep doing what your doing and every time you give her drink offer her food and make sure its crumbles she should come around
