If you are absolutely sure that your dog has ear mites you should get it looked at asap. If you don't want to go to a vet you can obtain treatments over the counter but be sure to by an insecticide containing 'pyrethin' or it probably wont work. Ear mites untreated can cause damage to your dogs ear canal and even cause deafness so you should not ignore it. Also if you have any other animals in your house they can be passed from one to another.
Hope this helps.

Its crucial to get medication for ear mites from the vet. Ears can be very easily damaged, and as Garden Girl said, if not treated properly can lead to all sorts of irreversible damage or deafness.
