Pet's info: Dog | Siberian Husky | Female | spayed | 1 year and 7 months old | 43 lbs
The vet gave me gentocin topical spray for my husky. She has raw spots all over her body . I bought natures care hot spot and itch relief . Which is better for her? The gentocin has alcohol in it and she screams when I put it on her

The gentocin spray has steroid and antibiotic in it so it is an appropriate treatment for hotspots. The other spray is not a prescribed medicine so will not have a gauranteed efficacy. Hotspots are sore so the spray likely sting a little. I would persevere with what your vet has prescribed to you, at the end of the day they habe examined Angel, and are a qualified professional and know what is best for your pet.
