She mostly scratches her face, ears, and her sides. She even rubs herself against the wall to scratch her sides.

zyrtec actually works better for dogs than benedryl
If you are not going to do hyposensitization shots the allergy testing really is a waste of money
If your dog has allergies I would definitely be dealing with a dermatologist as it is a life long thing and very frustrating and you want to be dealing with the best to handle the situation and keep your baby comfortable.
