Can you use orajel on a dog?
No, Orajel is not designed to be safe in the ear canal. Also, there really isn't any reason to be pulling ear hairs on a dog - they are there for a reason (to keep your dog's ears clean) and pulling them out can predispose your dog to ear infections. It's also painful to the dog, as I'm sure you have noticed based on your question. If your dog is having chronic ear infections, I would start with keeping your dogs' ears clean and dry, and possibly clipping the ear hairs close with a small pair of scissors.
How do you clean dog ears?
You can clean wax out of a dog's ear with a cotton bud if you are very gentle, or you can use a slightly damp flannel and gently wipe the dog's ear, but don't poke anything in there that you wouldn't poke in your own. Try not to get water in there either, because it can cause ear infections or at the least, he'll keep rubbing his head against the furnature, which, trust me, is annoying.

A damp ear is a perfect breeding ground for fungus or bacteria, especially for dogs with ear flaps (ears that hang down).
