Sept. 6th - Saw Dr. Johnson about the itching problem. Michael seems to have seasonal allergies as apparently lots of other dogs do, to pollens, etc. The flea meds have not seemed to do much for the control of fleas, but we have tried the Frontline Plus and it didn't seem to do much. Will bump up the application to every 3 weeks now.
RX:
- Frontline Plus every 3 weeks. Next application due September 27th
- Topical Steroid Spray. Twice daily for 2 - 3 days. Then taper to 1 x daily, then every couple of days, then every 3 days and so on.
- Continue with Flaxseed Oil on food 1x per day
By 10 pm Still scratching and trying to lick and bite spots most of night. Kept him close by me at all times and gave puppy kong to keep him occupied.
