Please help!
You are sure he's not itching them? This may sound icky put have you been able to lift the scab a bit? and no blood? Well one thing I thought of was seboreha keratosis, but they wouldn't respond to medicated shampoo, or antibotics because they are benign skin growths, similar to skin tags in humans. What colour is the scab? Can you move this "scab" around?

I think that it is good to demand the skin testing, also maybe take him to a vet dermatologist - they know their stuff. Pricey but worth it.
