itching at the stitches is normal for most dogs. And the bleeding is probably just a little bit of drainage that occured because she was messing with it. You need to get her a cone to prevent her from itching and licking the stitches. If she doesn't mess with the incision it will heal faster and better. Irritated incisions take longer to heal and complications can arise if she continues to irritate it.
