Oatmeal shampoo is not something I would use. I think it is over rated. If his skin is that irritated, he probably should be bathed in a medicated shampoo that you can get at the vet.
All of this could have started from the fleas. Only time will tell you about that.
The vet did not think that a skin infection is possible? He might need antibiotics.
I am saddened that the rescue adopted him out like this...it's a shame they did not vet him thoroughly and take care of his medical issues first. |
