Hi Molly
we have a dog that just keeps ripping his fur out all over his chest and tail, and the vet gave us some pills and some cream for his skin ( we owned his aunt and she lived to be a old dog but I digest Bandits biggest trouble is mites as already stated above So there is a cream for animals and Bandit is on Prednisalone 20mg tabs for internal. Either way , hope that helped
