I would search for the answer myself but my iPhone is not cooperating.

Is Cortaid OK to use on Betty Boop? She has broken out in a terrible red line rash from one underarm to the other underarm. It almost looks like a long scratch. She is going to lick at whatever I use.

I just gave her Benadryl and she seems settled down a bit and I put some Pjs on her to try and keep her from licking the ointment.

What ointment is safe to use for itching? The vet told me last week that it will probably be a bad year for allergies.
