| Bug/Insect prevention?? The mosquitos and yellow flies are pretty bad (right now) in my neck of the woods. Which I don't understand because they're usually not out at this time of the year. But, my question is how do I keep them away from my furbutts? They have to go outside, and it seems that every time I let them out those pesky insects have a feast. I just spray on some bug spray when I go out... but I wouldn't risk that on my bichon, her skin is too sensative for that, and I'm not sure if bug spray is good for dogs anyway. Advice, please?

Donating YT Addict | There are all types of Bug spray repellents at petsmart and petco. That being said hmmm I personally wouldnt use them on my dog. Her skin is very sensitive.

| There has been a big out break of West Nile virus in many states. It is spread by mosquitos. I would be very careful not to expose my dog to mosquitos right now. |
