Bed bug bites on dogs are very itchy, often leaving red welts on your dog. The most common place to see bed bugs on dogs is around the neck and head. This is because the head is always by their owner’s side in bed. A distant second place would be near the tail because of their deep bark.    Many people have been asking me “How can I get rid of bed bug bites on dogs?” and I’m surprised that they don’t already know. My neighbor down the street told me about this website she read an article on that said there is a special ingredient you can find in your kitchen cupboards that will take care of the problem once and for all. She had lost some weight and said she was itching like crazy. Kinda crazy considering how much weight she had lost. Most people think it’s weird that she still had so much skin left when she lost so much weight, but hey, I’m not one to judge.
