I've read that itching and biting on the feet can indicate a food problem, but it can also be an environmental allergy such as allergic to grass. You also want to check her nails, because dogs will bite at overgrown nails. I really would have the vet do another checkup. Maybe you could keep a dairy of how bad the itching is each day and chart such things as “walked on grass”, to see if you can find any correlations. I definitely would try rinsing the shampoo out more and I wish you the best of luck!
It is cold here during the winter, so I wouldn't think it would be grass. Her ears don't smell....well maybe slightly, but not that funky smell! I do try to keep her nails clipped. She is not a fan of the clipping, so I only do a couple at a time!
