Lacy does the same thing (so far as biting and itching) She's allergic to fleas. She's on frontline but sometimes she'll still pick up a flea and they have a chance to bite her. So then she'll be itching like crazy. It's been pretty bad this past week, even with giving her benadryl. She has really been scratching behind her ears..she's got little bald spots. Luckily you can't tell since she has hair that falls over it. I just get onto her everytime she starts scratching. I can't wait for the fleas to die down here and she's not itchy anymore
