When I put it on her though everything gets greasy... how have you been ably to keep it just on her skin??

Cant wait to hear how it goes... crossing fingers! I know how hard it is when they are itchy...
It is so hard when she is itchy-because it doesn't seem to bother her, but you know it's not comfortable. It is kind of hard getting it only on her skin-if anything i rub it into the roots of her fur which inturn gets absorbed into her skin...some gets on the top fur but I figured it's worth a little there if it stops her itching! It is a non-greasy formula so it really doesn't make her fur that greasy looking...It is worth losing some of her soft looking fur for a little bit while we fix her poor skin .

People still think she is soft and smells good though It just adds some shine i guess. So far it has minimized the itching, she still scratches some-but i think it is in places I didn't put the lotion as it is hard to cover all areas when you have trouble getting under her massively thick fur . The area I covered this morning seems to be scratch free though!
