The best flea medications now are tablets you give monthly called nexgard or simpatico or every three months called bravecto. Giving your dog a weekly bath in a medicated shampoo can help soothe her skin. If there is a lot of scabs and hair loss, she may need antibiotics and anti itch medicine to completely resolve it from your vet
