that is a very good medicated shampoo that is safe to use and work well for redness and hair loss. Unfortunately that spot is very hard to treat with topical because she will be able to lick it off and no medicine is likely to stay. Your best bet is to keep the area clean and change her to glass or stainless steel bowls. If it does not start to dry up and get a scab then I would have your vet check the area to see if oral medications are needed
