[Ashley V]

Gave him First Shield last night after I was bitten by a tick. All seemed well until about midday today when I noticed him scratching a lot more in that area. His skin was red and I could tell he wasn't comfortable, so I broke down and gave him a bath with a doggie oatmeal shampoo, hoping it was gentle enough not to irritate him even more. Shortly after the bath, he almost seemed to get more itchy and he wasn't just scratching his back. He was biting his paws and scratching his back a lot more. He's okay other than just being itchy and a little extra sleepy. I tried to call the vet, but they closed at 8. I gave him a little benadryl for now to maybe give him some relief but if that doesn't help, I'm calling the vet first thing in the morning to get their advice. I don't know what else I could do for him. I gave Smokey the exact same stuff and he's okay, it's just Chippy.
