| Won't stop scratching. Toby is constantly scratching himself. I know some of it is due to fleas even though we treat him with Frontline. We use hypoallergenic shampoo on him and only bathe him about every 5 to 6 days. He doesn't appear to have dry skin issues.We've had him 3 1/2 years and it's never been this bad. Any suggestions would be welcome.

| He might be allergic to the fleas...one bite can set off a really bad reaction if he is. You might call your vet, they may be able to tell you what you can do. Itching is so uncomfortable for them. Imagine how you feel when you have poison ivy I hope you figure it out and Toby starts feeling less itchy. I have an allergy girl so I can sure sympathize.
