| Skin Irritation......HELP Went to the vet to purchase by sweet baby boy Frontline Plus. The vet didn't have any for the small dogs but said they looked it up and the small cat Frontline was the same ingredients. So tonight I applied the Frontline Plus and with in minutes my sweet baby was scratching at the application site. I took a look and the application site was RED and raw, it was like it was burning him....so I threw him into the tub and washed it off with shampoo. He has stopped scratching the site but it has to hurt. Is there anything I can apply to the skin to give him some relief?? I guess I'm like my mother..."put a coat on I'm cold" kind of thing!! We are going to the vet tomorrow to let her know.....the Cat Frontline and the Dog Frontline are NOT the same! I feel bad because I'm the one that did it to him!! He trust me and I put something on him that has burned him! |

| Use a chamomile tea bag. Wet it in warm water and just lay it on the spot for a few minutes a couple of times a day. Chamomile sooths the skin and tea draws out infection. |

| That's odd, that is the one that I use on my babies. I guess it depends on the dog. I hope your little one feels better.

| The vets should know better. At least they must give all your money back ! Good luck !
