Canine skin condition?

My 2 year old yellow lab was treated earlier this summer with Frontline for fleas, and Zodiac shampoo, also used for fleas.


This was 3 months ago.





Recently, she has developed a skin condition whereby she has small "chicken pox" like scabs on her front legs and inner back legs. The area seems to be spreading. She licks and chews at these areas, and her she is now loosing her fur in the infected areas.





Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Canine skin condition?
if her feet are itching(licks them a lot) this may be what is called grass allergy. soak her feet in Epson salt and water for 20 minutes everyday until it clears up. the other rash could be from the heat. (like a heat rash) but losing her fur? I'd take her to the doctor.
