There's this chemical stuff you get from Home Depot/Lowe's that you attach to your water hose. Then, you spray it around the yard. It is great for killing fleas/ticks/mosquitoes in the yard. I just bought some the other day, but I cannot remember the name. Just ask an associate, though. They will know what you are talking about. I've used it for years and it helps!

Dogs frequently lick themselves and the chemicals in OFF are not meant to be ingested. Says so on the can. Use a vet approved repellant or keep them indoors at dusk(when mosquitos are most active). Also be sure they are on a heartworm preventative, as mosquitos carry and transmit heartworms.

Do not use the human variant of spray, many contain DEET which is poisonous to our 4 legged friends.
Check the Pet store to obtain a doggy spray for this purpose or try Skin-so-Soft by Avon, diluted repetitive treatment is required to have it remain effective, but it isn't toxic and doesn't smell as nasty as some of the products out there.
Another recommended one is Shoo-fly, a horse treatment for flies that is available at vets or at a Livery or Working Ranch. How to apply, where and how often should be available from the source you purchase it from.

NO! Get a fly repellent made for dogs - either from a pet store or pet supply catalog like

It is, I do it all the time before I walk my dogs in the woods, just make sure to rinse it off as soon as you get home. Also, if you have more than one day, make sure they dont bite each other or anything either.

No! do not take any negative aspects! The dogs ought to lick it off, or it my be undesirable for his or her epidermis or coat. in basic terms let the dogs manage it. If it needs to stay outdoors, yet proceed to get bit the so-be-it. If it needs to bypass interior then let it in. do in basic terms not take any possibilities by skill of spraying it on him/her

Ask a Vet. OFF may have chemicals in its contents that might be harmful if ingested.
