	Be Soothed. (For dogs only) Excel Hydrocortisone Spray Itchstick
“My pet had dermatitis and was constantly itching. I gave him some antibiotics and bought the Be Soothed spray. It’s a pretty big bottle and I only had to use it for about a week. He wasn’t itching or shedding as much and the hotspots were actually clearing up!” - Dorothy

Treat hot spots on your dog immediately to avoid further infections.

Hot spots should be treated immediately to prevent serious skin infections
from developing.


	Use a monthly flea preventative. Hot spots are commonly caused by an allergic reaction to flea saliva. Using a flea preventative can help prevent flea dermatitis by killing fleas.	Advantage K9 Advantix Frontline Plus
