Hot spots are caused by acute moist dermatitis, with causes including allergens and bugs. Pets exacerbate the itchiness by licking and biting, which causes inflammation. For best results, clean the area surrounding the hot spot with a suitable product; the hair may also need trimming back. Before attempting the latter, always ensure help is on hand and seek professional guidance. After a soothing cool wash and a gentle patting action to dry, the area is ready for topical treatment. Gently shake the bottle of Hot Spot formula and squeeze the pump 1 to 3 times as coverage dictates. With a clean cloth or tissue and a gentle patting action, evenly distribute the product across the irritated skin. The formula is quick drying and can be used up to 3 times daily. Contact with eyes should be avoided. Once infection is controlled, healing can span a few days to 3 weeks. In some cases a collar may be needed to protect the damaged area. If there is no improvement, or deterioration continues, a veterinary visit is recommended. To minimise future occurrences, a regime of regular skin and coat maintenance with regular brushing and shampooing is recommended.
