Summary
The evaluation of available studies shows that plant extracts and combinations have a high potential for natural Skin & Coat Support as well as for supporting skin and coat health:
-
Black Cumin (Nigella sativa): Laboratory studies show over 90% repellent efficacy against several tick species (Carroll et al. 2016). Initial evidence suggests that the bioactive substances contained may also have anti-inflammatory and skin-soothing effects, which could strengthen the natural skin barrier.
-
Multi-Plant Formulation (BioticksÂź): A controlled study in cats showed a gradual reduction of flea population by up to 77% after 5 months with very good tolerability (Banuls et al. 2023). The herbs contained, such as rosemary, lemongrass and lemon balm, also provide antioxidant and skin-protective effects that support skin health and coat quality.
-
Coconut Oil Derivatives and Catnip Oil: Laboratory findings suggest acaricidal effects against ticks (Barrozo et al. 2021). Coconut oil fatty acids are also known for their nourishing effect on skin and coat, which can indirectly strengthen the natural defense function.
-
Yeast Derivatives / B-Vitamins (Formula ZÂź): In 34 dogs, the average number of free ticks was significantly reduced by 74% and the number of engorged ticks by 68% after administration of a standardized yeast-thiamine complex (p < 0.001). The presumed mechanism of action is based on an influence on skin metabolism and a reduced perception by Haller's organs (Semmler et al. 2011; Shurson 2018).
All tested preparations were well tolerated, without relevant side effects.
Conclusion: Plant-based active ingredients such as black cumin, coconut oil, herbal mixtures and yeast derivatives combine repellent effects against fleas and ticks with positive influences on skin barrier and coat health. They thus represent a promising, safe and environmentally friendly supplement or alternative to conventional acaricides. Their effectiveness against fleas and ticks is proven, and their tolerability is high. Particularly interesting are combinations of several plant extracts, which have a gradual effect over longer periods and are suitable for sustainable, chemical-free parasite management.
How does dog food affect skin and coat?
You are what you eat â this principle applies not only to us humans. For our four-legged friends, food can also have a significant impact on many bodily processes. Incorrect food can not only trigger constipation, diarrhea, or allergies, but also skin problems. Allergies are an important keyword here: many typical ingredients in industrially produced dog food are potentially allergenic. This also applies to numerous protein sources such as beef or chicken. In this context, one often speaks of meat allergy.
The problem with allergenic ingredients: They can provoke skin problems. These include, for example, itching, redness, and inflammation. The result: the dog scratches and licks itself frequently and may eventually even lose its coat.
Important: Dog food is not always to blame for skin problems. Itching, skin infections, and similar symptoms can also have other causes. Therefore, it is advisable to consult a veterinarian. They can recommend coatther supportive measures, such as medication or treatment with special shampoos.

Dog food for skin and coat from BugBell
BugBell's dog food for skin problems was specially developed for sensitive dogs suffering from various skin and coat issues. These include, for example, the following symptoms:
- Dandruff
- Redness
- Itching
- Dull coat
- Hair loss
- Frequent skin inflammations
Below, we explain what makes our SkinHero products so special and how your dog can benefit from them.
Avoidance of allergenic ingredients
Our dog food for skin problems consciously avoids the most common allergenic ingredients. That's why our dog food is also well-suited for sensitive animals. Often, an improvement in skin problems can be achieved simply by avoiding conventional proteins and gluten-containing grains.
Tip: The protein in our skin-protective dog food comes from insects. These are not only considered hypoallergenic but are also good for the environment, as they can be produced with significantly fewer resources. Good for your pet and nature.
Selection of skin-supporting ingredients
When composing our SkinHero products, we paid particular attention to selecting ingredients that can support skin health. These include carrots, which contain a lot of beta-carotene, as well as cistus herb and rosemary, traditionally used in skin care. Other ingredients include high-quality oils, brewer's yeast, spent grain, and potatoes as a gluten-free source of carbohydrates.
How does dog food help Skin & coat support?
Ticks and fleas are a troublesome issue for many dogs and their owners. Because the four-legged friends prefer to roam through meadows, bushes, and the like all day long, they can quickly pick up some ticks. In addition to various products such as spot-on preparations and tick collars, food can also support Skin & Coat Support. Many dog owners have had good experiences with coconut oil and black cumin oil in this regard.

Dog food against ticks from BugBell
A special dog food against ticks that is guaranteed to work does not yet exist. However, due to the good experiences with black seed oil as part of the SkinHero recipe, we have chosen the recipe of our SkinHero product so that both black cumin oil and coconut oil against ticks are included. Many customers have had positive experiences supporting our dog food against ticks and other parasites. You can see this directly in our reviews.
