Hey everyone- this is my first post. I am very worried about my Diggs. He has recently (past week) started throwing up and having diarrhea. The diarrhea is usually only a small amount and he does also have solid stools. When he throws up it is usually all bile. Today the throwing up has increased a lot and I saw he had blood in his diarrhea. I am VERY worried about my baby. He also has been scratching himself a lot lately. I have bathed him a few times (with the same shampoo we have always used) but that doesn't seem to help. I caught some fleas on him after a trip to the park a week ago- treated him immediately and haven't seen any since. He has been eating a little bit less than usual but nothing drastic. Could this be worms? Is this something to go to an emergency clinic about?

He seems to be in good spirits which calms me a bit and I have been making sure he drinks water- any other suggestions?

THANK YOU!
