Poor Lady battles staph infections all the time since she is diabetic. I use Benzoil Plus shampoo. It's got moisturizers in it. I get it from Entirely Pets:

Western Medical Benzoyl-Plus Shampoo

A lot of people don't realize that Clearasil is also benzoil peroxide. I have had excellent results using that on staph breakouts on Lady. Other people I've recommended it to have also seen great results.
so why is chlorhexedine not used for staph when a dermatologist recommends this for staph and chlorhexedine is used for dentals as well for bacteria - staph is a bacteria infection so curious how you can say chlorhexedine is not a good shampoo for that? Just does not make sense to me
Douxo - Chlorhexidine PS Shampoo DOGS & CATS (6.8 fl oz)

especially since i have used a bunch of vet shampoos like malaseb, ketachlor, etc and dd had horrible reactions and never had a reaction to this a week ago and her coat was soft, no stinky smell, and skin looked great afterwards. The vet also recommended this and said he is seeing great things with this shampoo. Also on my allergy group they all use chlorhexedine shampoos with great success as we are constantly battling staph infections although due to coconut oil and probiotics dd has never had one until this year when i stopped it
