The only way to tell if it's from raw is to switch back, like you mentioned. Why not try giving kibble for one meal, raw for the other - try for 3 days - if no symptoms, do a hard switch.

How is her weight? Where is she itching exactly? Are her eyes runny/stinky/gunky? Any ear smell?
the hair loss is happening around the area where she is scratching, so she still has hair on her back and facial hair . . .

now that you asked about her eyes, she always has a bit of it but just have been noticing more gunck and wet in that area . . . the changes has been gradual so was not as noticeable until you ask me about it . . .
