In going back to the skin so soft.... Do you spray it full strength on the dogs or cut it?  We have biting flies and clouds of gnats. (along with the fleas and ticks) I can't mow the grass w/o deep woods off.  It's blood sucking time here in PA.

Just out of interest do you still get Avons skin so soft???? They
stopped making it here and we can't get it anymore was great for bug
relief in scotland and I'd love to order some if its still possible
to get hold of it. Any ideas???? They recommended their bug spray
but it smells and doesn't do the job...
