The chemical substances sprayed by skunks and called thiols can be quite irritant and provoke inflammation on dogs skin, gums and eyes. Usually plenty of water can be used to wash out these substances (especially from eyes). Water can be sprayed with a syringe (without needle) inside the mouth to wash it off as much as possible. If Flec keeps salivating despite it, a check up would be needed as anti-inflammatory meds may be required. Please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.

Hi there and thank you for using Boop by Petco to address your concern. It is possible that this is a skin reaction to the skunk spray or this could be due to the various shampoos and topicals that you have been using. These bumps are likely due to irritation. I would recommend having Rocky examined by a veterinarian so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. He will likely need the hair clipped away from his neck and be placed on a course of oral antibiotics and an anti-inflammatory medication. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.

There should be no ill effects apart from the smell :) The only problems we will usually see from skunk spraying is irritation of the eyes if they get sprayed in the eyes - so if you notice any squinting of the eyes you should wash them out through this eye wash and/or eye gel. You may be able to purchase these at your local Petco. If not, you can buy online.

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.
