Benadryl and acepromazine in combination on itching dog
My scottie (3yo female neutered) seems to be suffering from flea allergies. I have treated her with Frontline but she continues to dig & scratch at herself. I would like to give her some benadryl. I have read online the dose is 0.5-2 mg/Lb two times per day. Is this correct? I am getting ready to go on vacation and my brother will be keeping her. She has suffered from separtion anxiety before so I got a prescription of Acepromazine 25 mg refilled for my brother to give her if she needs it. Can the benadryl and the acepromazine be given at the same time? |

Dog with fleas
Last night my 7yo female neutered maltese was scatching a little & I noticed that the day before she did a little too. I rolled her over to look through her and found a flea...then 2 more a little bit later. I immediately ran to the store and bought Sergeants flea control that you put on their back between the shoulder blades & put that on her immediatedly. I washed all of her bedding & have vaccumed the house at least 3 times since. We have a huge 2 level house and the dog is 99.9% of the time on our main level in our living room & dining room. I found only 2 today...and that was early this morning...I have not seen any since...but am scared to death of how many fleas are in our house that I cannot see. I am afraid they are crawling everywhere & don't know where to start. The dog sometimes goes upstairs in our bedrooms.....I am afraid these pests could be in closets & etc....any advice would be greatly appreciated! - Click
