AnswerNo, dogs cannot get chicken pox. Your dog needs to be seen by a veterinarian as she may have a bacterial infection (which could be contagious to people) or a reaction from fleas. http://www.dogandhorsecare.com/staph-infection
Interestingly enough, I was once treating one of my small children for hives when our little dog broke out in hives. The child was soaking in a baking-soda bath upstairs while I was doing the same to the dog downstairs in the laundry tub. I still think that was pretty freaky.
