The "heebie jeebies" is exactly how my Shih Tzu acted when he had a reaction to K9 Advantix. His were really bad, plus he had intense itchiness. I bathed him in Dawn (per the instructions on the K9 Advantix website) within a couple of hours of application but it didn't seem to help so we went to the vet and he was given a Benadryl injection. A couple of days later the itching had only gotten worse, so he was put on a course of steroids. It took a week for the "heebie jeebies" and itchiness to completely stop.
Is this the second time you applied the Activyl? From what my vet said it's usually not the first application that triggers a reaction, but the second or subsequent applications.
I remember reading some suggestions that said applying Vitamin E oil to the application site(s) can help.
