We got him some more Children's Benadryl and that's been working fairly well also. At this point, I've been checking his "wound" (where he tore the skin) daily and as of this morning, he's got a bruise-colored patch of skin where he has started to bite right above the tear in his skin. I'm almost positive that it's flea sensitivity, but I'm wondering why it didn't show up the first time he had fleas? Why only the second time around? If there are any more ideas I'd love to hear them!

Obsessive biting and scratching can be symptoms of other conditions besides allergies. If you haven't already done so, I would contact my vet, to find out for sure. I had a corgi that a vet misdiagnosed as having allergies. If your dog has a wound and discolored skin, it's time for a professional or a second opinion.
