It sounds like Achilles may be suffering an allergic reaction if he's come home in bumps, and I would recommend seeing a vet for that. Allergic reactions can potentially progress to breathing difficulties, and it's important to have them treated to prevent that from happening. He may benefit from an antihistamine or steroids to treat the reaction. If paying for a vet is an issue, you can see if your vet accepts payment plans, if there is a low cost clinic in your area, or you can apply for Care Credit online. There is also an organization called Red Rover that give grants for treatment of sick animals, and you can see if you qualify for one of their grants. http://www.humanesociety.org/animals/resources/tips/trouble_affording_pet.html?credit=web_id91754962 https://www.redrover.org https://www.carecredit.com
