Default Please help...can I give Benadryl along with Temeril P until the itching lets up

My poor baby went to the vet today for a bad rash and excessive itching...shes had similar problems before but a little Temeril P usually help and it goes away for awhile. I havent yet tried allergy testing as it is really expensive and no one around here does it.
This is the second time the rash has been this bad. My heart breaks for her...she cant lie still for more than a few minutes without biting at her but or scratching herself.
I really dont like this vet that much...she isnt the regular vet but since they saw us at the last minutre today...its hard to complain. She actually had few answers for me and wasnt even going to give me medications...i had to ask for Temeril P...she said I could just give Benadryl. I tried that last night and it didnt help at all. She gave me the Temeril P and I asked if it was okay if she needed it if she could have Bendryl too...she said it was okay but most dogs dont need it too. Well she had it 4 hrs ago and is still miserable. The things I read on Temeril say it is an antihistamine also so Im a little worried about giving Benadryl too. Im sure the vet,even if I dont like her wouldnt tell me anything bad for her, but just wondered if anyone has ever given both of these drugs at once.
