Lucy was just spayed last week. She was pretty out of it the first day but picked up and was just about normal in a day and 1/2. My vet gave her pain meds (tramadol & an antiinflamatory.) If the meds are not contraindicated with the antibiotic, you may want to do the spaying. And, if she's scratching, you'll get a nifty cone for her head to prevent picking at the stitches (Lucy didn't need that though.) It may be a win win, so to speak...
Good luck.
