For the last week or so I've been noticing hat Sugar has scabs all over her neck and face. The only two things I can think of are an allergy or fleas. She's strictly indoor, but sometimes Blue gets in for a few minutes and I think he has fleas, so they could have jumped from him. The other thing could be a food allergy, I'll switch her to wellness when the Blue Buffalo is gone and see if that helps, but there's still quite a bit left so it may be a month or so. Is there anything I can do to soothe her skin in the meantime?

We are having the SAME trouble w/ our cat. the doc said it was a flea allergy. yesterday I gave her a bath with http://www.earthbath.com/shampoo/pints/pint-hypo.php and it seemed to help some, at least for now.

Thanks, I'll look into that. It's good for both cats and dogs? Since I probably won't need it a lot for Sugar maybe Fred's mom will wanna go halfs on a bottle, since Blue has been having dry itchy skin problems lately as well.

Yes, it's OK for puppies & kittens over 7 weeks. I haven't tried t on my dog yet but i was planning on using it because it says it will not wash off flea medication.
