It took a while to narrow it down to chicken. We switched food several times, first just going grain free which helped some and then after an upset tummy where I was giving chicken and rice, I noticed she started itching really bad again. We changed her to an LID diet of sweet potato and venison from Natural Balance and it has made a world of difference. I accidentally gave her a tiny bit of a treat that contained chicken liver...her itching was so bad I had to take her to the vet for a shot.
It takes a few weeks when you change the diet to see if it is going to work for the itching.

Teddy was having random bouts of diarrhea and vomiting and I always ran to the vet and they kept prescribing him medication for upset stomach. Every food I've given him since he was little contained chicken...and when I gave him boiled chicken when he was younger he vomited and I always thought that it was b/c I overfed him. I switched to LID diet of sweet potato and fish and his stool is great, no vomiting, etc. I'm so happy we finally found a food that works for us...but keep in mind that I had to switch him slowly so he took approximately 3 weeks to improve and now he's doing great
