Q: Wha if the hot spot is on their mouth/check area. Is this ok to use as they will surely lick it.
submitted by CE - 16 days ago
A: Because this product shouldn’t be licked, and the area of concern is near your pet’s mouth, it’s best to check with your veterinarian before use. They can help determine if it’s suitable and advise on safe application.

Q: Is a cone recommended to discourage licking of the area?
submitted by Poplar - 1 month ago
A: It’s not required to use a cone while the spray dries; however, it’s important to discourage your pet from licking the treated area. You know your pet and its behaviors best, please use your judgment. If you feel more comfortable using a cone to help prevent licking, that’s an acceptable precaution.

Q: How long does it take to dry
submitted by Kathy - 3 months ago
A: Drying time will vary based on the amount of product applied, the length and density of the coat, and the condition of the fur. It is recommended to allow the treated area to dry completely to the touch. Even after drying, licking should be discouraged to ensure the medication remains on the skin and can effectively support the healing process.

Q: Is this safe to apply on an open wound (which developed as a result of licking a hot spot)?
submitted by TrustyD - 4 months ago
A: Because there may be an open wound and the severity is unknown, it's best to consult your veterinarian for proper guidance and care.

Q: is it safe to put on paws if they pick their paws?
submitted by pet mom - 6 months ago
A: It is recommended to allow the product to dry completely before allowing your pet to lick or access the treated area. Lidocaine may cause unusual sensations in the mouth, and licking the product off can reduce its effectiveness.

LOVE the Hot Spot & Itch Relief Medicated Spray!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This spray is great for my cat! Especially if we go outside, she may get itchy from the grass or get a flea, or anything else from being out too long. This way, I don't have to torture my cat with a bath!

Great Itch Relief Between Baths
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given this product in exchange for my honest review. I’ve been using the Veterinary Formula Hot Spot & Itch Relief Medicated Spray as a between-washes treatment and it has made a noticeable difference. The spray was really easy to apply, but my dog was a little nervous about the sound and spray at first. I found that spraying it on gloves and wiping it on worked way better for him. The product itself gave him instant relief, though it did take a little while to fully dry. The scent is a bit strong when first applied, but it fades once the product sets. After using it regularly, I noticed a drop in his overall itching. This has been a helpful addition to our routine, especially when I don’t have time to do a full bath.

Great spray for itchy hotspots
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dog gets hotspots during the summer because it can be hard for his coat to dry after being in the water due to the humidity. We tried this hotspot spray and it helped keep his paws less itchy so he wasn’t licking them and making them worse. They could actually heal, for once, and his paws feel much better!

AMAZING
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently tried the Hot Spot Itch & Relief Spray on my dog, Diamond, and I am beyond impressed with the results! Diamond had been struggling with constant itching and irritated skin, and no matter what I tried, nothing seemed to give her long-lasting relief. The moment I applied this spray, I noticed an almost immediate calming effect—she stopped scratching and seemed so much more comfortable. Within just a few days, her skin looked healthier, less red, and much less irritated. I also love that it’s easy to apply, non-greasy, and doesn’t have an overpowering smell. Diamond didn’t resist when I sprayed it on, which made the whole process stress-free for both of us. This product truly worked wonders and gave my pup the comfort she desperately needed. I highly recommend this spray to any pet parent dealing with hot spots, itching, or irritated skin. It’s definitely a must-have in our home now!

Super effective and fast
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Been using the Hot Spot & Itch Relief Spray on my yorkie and it’s been such a relief for her. Whenever she starts scratching or licking a spot a quick spray calms the irritation almost instantly. It dries fast without leaving her fur sticky or greasy. she doesn’t mind me applying it. I love that it helps between baths and keeps her comfortable.

So good
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Veterinary Formula Hot Spot & Itch Relief Medicated Spray has been such a lifesaver for my dog. He tends to get itchy spots, especially during the warmer months, and this spray gives him almost immediate relief. I love that it’s easy to apply just a few spritzes and it starts working without leaving behind any sticky residue or strong odor. Within a day or two, I noticed less scratching and the irritated area began to look much better. It’s gentle on his skin, yet effective, and I feel good knowing it’s formulated with ingredients that are safe for pets. Definitely a must-have for any pet parent dealing with hot spots or skin irritation.

Used this for my cat's overgrooming due to itch
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I started using this spray on my cat, who has been dealing with itchy skin and overgrooming, even to the point of having bald spots. I’ve been using it along with her regular baths and shampoo, and I’ve noticed a real improvement! After applying it a few times a day for about a week, she’s much calmer and isn’t constantly licking or overgrooming herself anymore.

Prevented itching/licking
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hi! My dog was very often itching and licking her skin, as a result of irritation with her skin, stress, and potentially ticks (she had one this season so far). When I notice that she is itching or licking excessively, I typically spray on the spray and it usually only takes 1-2 sprays. Luckily, Lolly (my dog) tends to stop itching/licking and it really helps her skin since she is not damaging it. I am really impressed with this product and I think it will be great as we continue into the fall!

Helping my itchy dog
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dog Jenny is a 10-year-old Great Pyrenees and German Shepherd mix. We have stray cats in our backyard that carry fleas, and unfortunately they keep passing them on to Jenny. On top of that, she has eczema, so the combination of fleas and itching causes her to scratch so much that her skin sometimes bleeds. This spray has been helping—her itching has eased up and the redness is going down. I’ve added it to her daily routine and I’m hopeful her fur will start to grow back where she had been scratching so badly.
