She has scratched her ears and neck so much I can see her scalp in places. It is just tearing me apart to see her in such agony. She was diagnosed last week with yeast infec. in both ears and is on tresaderm for that. I have been doing benadryl for a week now and I can't see any measurable improvement.
Oh gosh. Has your vet mentioned trying steroids for potential immediate relief? Then you change the diet so they can come off of them. May not work for all food allergies though. Not as safe as anti-histamines, but obv. this is a quality of life issue.
