Let us know how you make out
I definitely will, give an update tomorrowLet us know how you make out
Sulfodene is basically the same as nustock I believe, they are both sulfur based. That is is fine but IMO less is more I would let it air out, it is such a large area ointments will make a mess unless you really need them.
ANIMAX is anti fungal and again I do not think you need it at this point just more money for something you might not need.
I would bathe the dog with dawn dish soap in case of a contact allergy and give benadryl twice a day with the right dosage (see the thread I posted). Then I would do Cephalexin for 10 days for the secondary skin infection that is kind of developing. If you want you can use a triple antibiotic ointment it the area is dry and chapped but nothing fancy. If it does not look better after a few days of the meds then you have to start eliminating other possibilities.
All the vet is going to do is charge you for looking at it and prescribe some ointment that may or may not work. If you want you can send me 40 bucks and call it even
