If your dog is not on a raw diet try that. Try a three day or more treatment of NyStatin to rule out any fungal connection. V. Jackson's Pepper bitch developed a fungal problem and it could be seen on her foot pads. This bitch also came down with that Pyometra problem and finally died. We had no knowledge of such things back then only what the Vet told us.

Beaufort S.C. is in the lowlands and was a swampy part of S.C. Seems every little blood sucker lived there and humidity moisture levels stayed high. Was a parasite something called a sand flea. Certain times of season they could get worse. Remember visiting his dog yard at certain times in the Summer. Your scalp would start burning like it was on fire from those minute size fleas biting you. LOL
