Don't forget that this is the time that allergies affect our 4 legged kids. It is NOT all about fleas. If your kiddo is chewing and scratching, it may be allergens. Come by and lets make sure. You can always try benadryl, the standard 25mg. is not going to cause your baby any problems. If you notice that it is helping, that is one way of telling that your kiddo has allergies.
On that note: no candies, no trick or treating for the 4 leggeds. Make sure they are safely inside and were no one can do any tricks on them.
