You really should take your dog into be checked by a Veterinarian to make sure there are no foreign objects in the ears such as foxtails, etc. causing the infection plus the Vet would know if it is a bacterial or yeast infection. You need to know what is causing the infection in order to treat the ears properly. Nolvasan Otic is a very good cleaner with no alcohol in it. Just squeeze it into the ear canal and then lift up the ear flap with one hand and with the other hand massage the ear at the base to work the solution down into the ear canal. The ear canal takes a hard right, so you need to massage the base of those ears gently to get it down in.
