Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. From your description, it sounds as if Tobie may have a skin allergy or infection. I would recommend using the below products, which can be found online quite easily. If there is no improvement, I would recommend having a veterinarian examine Tobie so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further. 1. Douxo PS Chlorhexidine combination shampoo and bathe twice weekly until resolved 2. Malacetic conditioning spray and apply to the affected area 2-3 times per day until resolved 3. Essential 6 spot on by Dermoscent
