Clorox by itself is a very dangerous compound, containing chlorine, and needs to be treated with extreme care. Part of the care is never using Clorox in an enclosed space without either tons of ventilation, the correct filtration mask for this chemical and eye protection, or both/all. Your throat burning indicates you've inhaled enough chlorine to do yourself an injury. While the injury may not be extreme this time, you really need to avoid this -- it's a checmical burn in your airway. Note -- do not Ever mix Clorox and Amonia. Also, read the precautions listed on any cleaning chemicals -- they're all pretty nasty and you need to know how to not endanger yourself.

Will a dog get sick from licking Clorox?

It depends on how much the animal ingested. Chlorine is a blister agent, but Clorox has a lower concentration of chlorine, so a small amount consumed should not be a problem. To be safe, give him/her a good amount of water and watch him. Clorox is also found in household items such as bleach and kitchen cleaners. it depends where the dog ingested the Clorox from and how much. If your dog is showing any signs of excessive drooling, vomiting, showing signs of abdominal pain, throat discomfort or laboured breathing, take him/her to vet right away.

You should indeed be concerned with breathing in vapors of any Clorox Bleach. Clorox is a highly alkaline substance (with a pH >7.0). and as such may be corrisive to damp tissue -- mucous membranes like the nose and throat, and the lungs, as well as the eyes.You should always use any bleach in a well-ventilated environment so you don't breathe the fumes, or wear a HEPA filter.Take a look at the Clorox bottle for lots of details about this.User:Cjonb20:00, 2 Jun 2008 (UTC)geraint pursey
