Ok so Bentley's skin is a bit better. Not so red now but kind of pink. It still itches though.

So based on your advice will it be a good idea to give him a bath with his anti-itch conditioner mixed with a little of coconut oil?

I also have a hypoallergenic shampoo for sensitive skin (thats the one I usually use on him). Should I use shampoo to wash away any possible dawn remains? Or just the conditioner/coconut oil)

I live in florida and right now is hot and humid outside, will it be a good idea to walk him outside more often? Maybe the humidity will help his skin?

Thank you so much!
