What meds were given?

Sounds to me like this kiddo has/had pyoderma, which is an overgrowth of the naturally occurring staph intermedius - causing the bacterial skin infection. When that happens, Simplicef should be given x 30 days. A skin scraping is done to diagnose pyoderma, very simply done.

When allergies are present, the skin can become inflamed/irritated and out of balance...then the bacteria goes crazy and you have an infection.
