Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Luckily the small flies and gnats do not harm or bother the dogs. You can try a repellent product like Advantix that is approved for dogs and to repel flies. I do not recommend spraying OFF on pets. Personally I think it they do not bother the dog to avoid excessive product usage. Have a good day!
