Instructions
Treatment Using Alcohol
Soak a cotton ball or cloth in rubbing alcohol.
Apply alcohol to the poison oak-irritated skin (i.e., paws, nose, stomach), ensuring your hands are protected with latex gloves.
Rinse alcohol away with cold water only. Allow skin to dry; do not reapply alcohol.
Treatment Using Tecnu
Put latex gloves on your hands to avoid cross-contamination of poison oak.
Apply Tecnu to irritated skin areas including the nose, paws or other fur-less areas.
Rinse Tecnu away with cold water or wipe off with a cold cloth. Do not reapply the Tecnu.
