Allergies can be very frustrating to manage since there are many causes (flea bites, food, contact, inhaled). The easiest cause to resolve is to treat Poli and the environment for fleas. Discuss antihistamine use, hydrolyzed diets, allergy testing and food elimination trials with your vet to rule out other causes. An e-collar (cone) can be used to prevent excessive licking or chewing. A colloidal oatmeal bath may also soothe itchy skin and an essential fatty acid supplement, such as DermCaps or EicosaCaps, may promote healthy skin and coat.
