Another common allergy symptom in pets is localized areas of skin inflammation and bacterial infection, commonly known as hot spots. Hot spots are triggered by irritations to the pet’s skin from scratching, licking, and chewing, often causing red, raw skin. Breeds with thicker coats and dogs that are often wet from swimming, bathing or inclement weather are the most prone to these irritations.² Hot spots can be incredibly painful so quick treatment is vital to the healing process. Durvet’s Remedies Hot Spot Mist is a fast way to relieve itching and burning from hot spots, as well as food allergies, flea bites, and other environmental allergens.
