Have a lovely affectionate INDOOR kitten named Nika. Only one real problem.
Somehow, somewhere she picked up ringworms. I'm about ready to give up.
Just when I think it's under control it seems to spread.

Ringworm is a fungus. The cat can be reinfected from the environment.
You can catch it as well. Some cats seem to have systemic ringworm.
Have you tried Program? You can buy it online and it is very
effective in controlling ringworm. Here is a post I made months ago
about treating my cat Peewee for ringworm with Program:

"Let me preface this post with the fact that I am not a vet...

BUT, if your cat has ringworm, but is otherwise healthy, you may be
able to save yourself the $80 I just spent by foregoing a visit to the
vet and treating your cat with Program. It is an off-label use, but
one that my vet recommended. Peewee was prescribed Program at 44mg/lb
of body weight - one dose, followed by another dose one month later,
as insurance. I then treat him monthly with the standard cat dosage
as a preventative."

I bought the "large dog" dosage in chewable tablet form and crushed
them up into a little tuna - the cat ate it "all gone" immediately.
Worked like a charm.

HTH,
