Shampoos for Dogs and Cats

If bath time leaves your dog clean but still scratching, a standard grooming shampoo isn't doing the job their skin actually needs. Medicated shampoos are formulated for dogs whose skin is the problem — itchy, irritated, flaky, smelly between baths, or prone to seasonal flare-ups.

DermaBliss® medicated shampoos combine cleansing with soothing, skin-supporting ingredients, including antibacterial and antifungal formulations for skin that needs more than a rinse. During allergy season, regular bathing does double duty: it soothes irritated skin and physically washes pollen and allergens out of the coat before they can keep triggering the itch.

A realistic routine for itchy dogs looks like this: a soothing medicated bath weekly during flare season, tapering to every few weeks in the off-season with anti-itch sprays or wipes covering the days in between. If itching persists despite consistent bathing — or skin is broken, raw, or losing hair — consult your veterinarian.
