If your dog is licking the hotspot, the bacteria in your dog's saliva can cause greater discomfort & prolong his or her healing time. Therefore, an "Elizabethan collar" may be necessary.
If the hotspot is caused by a skin condition such as mange, an antibiotic should be prescribed by your dog's vet.

Clipping the hair around the spot and scrubbing it well to remove the gummy stuff. Then sprinkle with Gold Bond powder. Works wonders!!!!!!!!!!!

Hot spots on dogs. They actually sell a spray that is specially made for hot spots called ALLERCAINE with Bitteran. It works.

I answered on the other version of this question too. I bought a bottle of witch hazel (you can get at walmart or any grocery store) and dabbed on with a cotton ball twice daily. It cleared it up with no signs of burning or irritation.
