My groomer usually plucks the hair, but last time she didn't for some reason and Ralphie got an ear infection. The vet ended up plucking the ear hair, and I felt like a terrible mommy. To put in the cleaning drops and the ear medication, it had to be plucked. It's more difficult for the ear to dry out, if you don't pluck it and I think I may have gotten some water in his ear at his last bath. So my vote is pluck. Plucking shouldn't cause irritation, I wonder if she got water in the ears? I think I'd tell her about the irritation.
