It looks like your puppy may have a skin infection. You could bathe him with a dog shampoo, like Epi-Soothe or HyLyt and see if that helps. Otherwise, he should be examined by a vet for treatment. He may need an antibiotic to treat an infection. Your vet can also recommend the best flea/tick medication for him which should be used to prevent fleas and ticks.
