For a client bitten by a pet raccoon, rabies prophylaxis should include observation of the animal for 60 days (B), one dose of rabies immune globulin (C), and five doses of rabies vaccine over a 28-day period (D). Pets, especially those not typically vaccinated against rabies like raccoons, can carry rabies, and immediate prophylaxis is recommended following potential exposure.
