Well, if they stink, then there is probably an infection, either yeast or bacterial. If there is brown sticky like stuff in there, then there is definitely an infection. The most common ear infections are yeast infections. The best thing to do is see a vet, let them diagnose the problem, flush out the ears, and get you medication. I recommend this first and foremost, however, you can get a mild ear cleaner and clean the ears yourself. For yeast infections, I swear by the over the counter vaginal yeast infection medications. It is the same type stuff your vet will give you for an ear yeast infection, however, it does not take care of bacteria if it is present. One other thing you need to consider is ear mites.

A yeast infection can happen in the mouth, or in the throat. It can happen on the skin, in the armpits, on the feet, under the breasts or in folds of fat; and pretty much anywhere.Anywhere a moist, warm fleshy area can develop and be left alone without cleansing it is possible for candida fungus to grow.Yeast infections that occur in other locations (or in children) are often given a variant name even though they are technically the same fungal growth.For example a yeast infection in a child's mouth is typically called thrush mouth; to avoid the stigma of associating a vaginal infection with a child's mouth infection even though they are both technically from the same yeast fungus.A yeast infection in a man's armpit is usually called intertrigo.There are a variety of terms used for the same identical (candida) yeast infection depending on gender, age and body location.
