Hi and thanks for your post! It is hard to say exactly what the cause of Little Bit's skin condition may be without examining Little Bit first, but I can offer a few possibilities and next steps. It could be a fungal infection, mites, or perhaps a skin allergy (such as from fleas). Your veterinarian can diagnose these potential conditions with a few simple skin tests and an exam. I would recommend Little Bit visit her vet soon for a diagnosis so she can receive the proper treatments. Best to you and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach!
