    Default Balding after Revolution

    My poor guy (8 months old indoor/outdoor squirrel) started losing fur at the site where I applied a drop of Revolution for kittens/puppies. The skin underneath doesn’t seem irritated but I’m worried it’s getting bigger! Would this resolve on its own or should I worry about an allergic reaction. I put some coconut oil on his skin thinking it might provide some relief. Photos attached. Any advice would be appreciated!

    I’ve never had that happen. You can continue using coconut oil on it and in the future you can dose one drop on a nut and have him eat it. The hair should regrow.

    It's not easy to saturate the skin while avoiding the fur, the fur will grow back.
    I have had this happen with a dog which lead to my preference from then on
    out to administer orally.

    Thanks for the replies! I appreciate it. I hope I didn’t put too much revolution on him but I figured it’s been two days so if there were severe side effects, I would have seen them by now.
