I would recommend taking her back to the vet for medications to help stop her itch and heal the skin. It is very possible Angel is allergic to fleas. I would recommend a flea prevention every 30 days. This can be a topical or oral flea prevention. Also, a medicated shampoo 2 times a week and an over the counter anti histamine. Most likely if her skin is red and irritated taking her to a vet would be the best idea
