Just bought Adams Pentagon flea and tick spot on for dogs wondering if it was safe because she's 11 years old about 18 to 19 lb
It appears to be a canine product, although for a smaller weight catergory, so should be ok. Do not give it to cats however! I do prefer Advantix and prescription flea/tick products, however, due to the reactions seen with Adams and similar products.

I have a dog and she is at least 4-5 months old. I have given baths to when she gets fleas and she's used to that but recently I used Adams flea spray and she's been getting rash spots. What should I do? Is it because she's not used to it?
Hello and thank you for reaching out to Boop by Petco. It sounds like Fifi has had a bad reaction to the Adam's flea spray, so this should NOT be used again. The only topical flea and tick products that should be used on dogs (and cats) are those purchased from a veterinarian. Flea and tick products that are purchased from a pet or food store or online are not safe or effective for dogs, and can cause these painful skin reactions, or can even cause dogs to become systemically sick. I recommend contacting your local veterinarian about what flea and tick products they offer. Appropriate topical options include K9 advantage and Frontline. There are also oral options such as Bravecto and Nexgard, as well as a collar than can be worn (Seresto collar) for up to 8 months of flea and tick prevention! I hope this is helpful.

Dr. Hinson/ Dr. Melanie: what about this shampoo? Also, do you recommend conditioner for dogs? I am going to try the allivet items but I came across this and became curious.
Flea and tick shampoos are only a quick fix. They will not continue to repel or kill fleas. They are not recommended - any brand. The Antiparasitic/Antiseborrheic shampoo does not have the active ingredients that the Duoxo has. I'm not saying it won't work (it might) but I am not familiar with it.

Can I dilute my dogs shampoo into a spray before I brush her?
Hello. This product does have some shampoo in it, so you can see if this leaves a soapy residue on Callie's coat after spraying her. If there is not too much residue, then diluting before brushing should be fine. If not, you may still need to rinse her off. They do make leave on dry shampoos & conditioners for dogs. You might want to check one of these out, too. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

Where can I find an antiseptic shampoo for Bella's rash? I've found on Amazon Curaserb but unfortunately it seems to be sold out and no longer in market, I've asked for a shampoo but the vet said that it's not needed since her rash will fade but it's
My favorite brand is Duoxo. It comes in a shampoo that has chlorhexidine and climbazole that treats bacterial and fungal problems. However, if you are unable to find this or something similar at a pet store then any drug store is likely to have a chlorhexidine OR salicylic acid shampoo in their human shampoo section. I hope this helps! Best of luck and thank you for using Pet Coach.
