Have you tried applying Vitamin E, or a salt solution or even Lanevder oil or Tree Tea oil. Goto www.ambient.on.ca for info about compresses with oils to help heal irritations and infections, mainly on humans but it might help your dawgie. I've used the lavender oils on my Bloodhounds when they've scraped themselves up hard while on Search and Rescue missions in the desne woods. worked great! Just remember to dilute it!!!!
Let me know how it works out
