Hello everyone!!!
I have a question or a few........
My dog had demodex and is being treated with benzoyl peroxide baths with tea tree oil rinses here at home. I know that to ingest the tea tree oil is very dangerous to any animal or person. So after I bathe the dog I wash the tub out very well. What my concern is with is when the dog is wet and dripping on the floor should I be scrubbing the floor as well?? And what about the odor?? Is that dangerous to my cats?
Its a very small amount of tea tree oil......about 20 drops added to 6 quarts of water and then that is rinsed over the dog again and again..........
Anyhow I make sure our dog is totally dry before I let her out in the rest of the house and with our other dog, but I still have some concerns about the cats.
Any information would be great......Ive tried researching it online and I know its terrible if its licked by them so thats why I cleaned really well afterwards but Dixie is going to need these bathes every other day for a few weeks if not longer and I just want to cover the safety of my cats.
Thanks
Liz
