My dog has brown pigmentation on her belly, which seems to have worsened since returning from a vacation. She has a history of allergies and skin infections. I bathed her in a shampoo containing tea tree oil, neem oil, and oatmeal. Do you think this could be a yeast infection, and what can I do at home to help her?

My puppy, Syd, a 45 lbs 9-month-old German shepherd pit mix, possibly ate her flea tick collar about an hour ago. She is still active and playful. How can I make her vomit and are there any other concerns I should be aware of?

My parents' Pomeranian dog, Bear, has black skin disease. He was on medication for itching, which worked, but my parents have financial issues. Are there any over-the-counter medications that could help? Bear has been itching for about a year, his back is almost black, he's losing hair, and getting infections from itching. He is 6 years old.
