Animal Smiley 036 My Roxy have some skin problems as well

Roxy is 4 months old and I have her since she was 10 weeks. I noticed in the fist few days she moved with us like a little blister in her chest. I also remember taking it off and putting antibiotic ointment in the little scar since I tought it could be a scratch or cut made by her brothers or sisters in the litter. It dissappeared from there, so I did not pay any attention to it anymore. I also took her to her first vet examination after "adopting" her and the vet did a complete examination to her and found everything normal in the skin. This week I was checking her for fleas, since I noticed her scatching herself and found some blisters in her chest. I also found some in her front legs, so I took her to the vet, since I have two human babies which I have to look at as well. The vet scaped her skin and checked in the microscope to see if it was some contageous disease, but told me that the test was negative and that it might be some allergic reaction. I told him that I used to desinfect her area with hypoclorite and water, since she still have accidents from time to time and he told me to suspend the use of it and to clean the are with vinegar and water instead. He also gave pills. I am in the process of changing her diet from Royal Cannin to Sojos Veg and adding fresh protein which she loves. Does anybody knows if that kind of allergic reaction might come from the grains in Royal Canin? I also give her calcium, kelp powder and omega 3,6 and 9 with her food. I am not thinking the sojos or the suplements might be the problem, since it started before I started to give them to her.
