To flush out wounds I carry a small (3.5oz)
small bottle of generic Nasal Saline Spray. You may have to enlarge to spray hole a little to get a stream rather than a mist, but you can't beat the size and cost.

Small bottles of contact lens saline solution work well in my FAK's for emergency wound irrigation. They also work well to wash foreign objects out of the the eye.
the smallest size bottles of contact lens
saline solution i've found are 4 oz. and that's what i use.

grossly dirty wound, and if you're carrying a hydration bladder, you can always clean the distal end of the hydration bladder tube (or remove it), and squeeze the bag for a pressure wash - just don't pretend you're pressure washing the driveway! you don't want to drive the dirt where it doesn't belong.
