Hello there! I would recommend you give Sky a bath if you recently (within a few hours) applied the second dose. Continue to monitor her for any unusual behavior, vomiting, diarrhea, skin irritation, etc for the next 12-24 hrs. If you notice any changes Sky should be seen by a veterinarian as soon as possible. You can continue the next months does as scheduled. I suspect that Sky will likely be fine, but definitely keep an eye on her. Hope this helps!
