It treats the underlying skin issue rather than just conditioning the fur, making it a targeted skin care step rather than a grooming step.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Knackely","offers":[{"title":"Spray (2-pack)","offer_id":47910160859241,"sku":"AV6B0DZF1MZHH","price":25.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Shampoo (2-pack)","offer_id":47910160892009,"sku":"MBEB0002DIO1M","price":25.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Shampoo","offer_id":47910160924777,"sku":"CQRB0037Z6VLC","price":10.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"All-in-One Bundle","offer_id":47910160957545,"sku":"QBUB0DZDGP735","price":22.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Conditioner","offer_id":47910160990313,"sku":"NOIB0037Z6VJO","price":17.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"All-in-One Bundle (Pack of 6)","offer_id":47910161023081,"sku":"TCDB0HBNYZL63","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Shampoo (12-pack)","offer_id":47910161055849,"sku":"HBMB0HBP3ZX3V","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Spray","offer_id":47910161088617,"sku":"JYOB0037Z6VJE","price":10.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0778\/8786\/4937\/files\/active-ingredients-lidocaine-and-hydrocortisone-acetate-for.jpg?v=1786959059","url":"https:\/\/knackely.myshopify.com\/products\/veterinary-formula-clinical-care-hot-spot-itch-relief-spray-for-dogs-cats-paraben-free-dye-free-formula-safe-for-multi-pet-homes","provider":"Knackely","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
