[QUOTE="1982vett, post: 1559438, member: 7795"] Might not be the food. I've had two Labrador's that were highly allergic to flea bites. Symptoms were scratching and biting to the point of lost fur and sores. Topical controls and flea dip wasn't enough to get the job done. Only thing that worked was the monthly oral Nextguard chewables. It is pricey and their is a less expensive brand on the market for heartworm and fleas that worked (can't remember the name right now) but it appears it is very unpalatable and they quickly refuse any attempt to take it. Also be aware, just because you can't find a flea on them doesn't mean it hasn't been exposed or bitten by one. I was stubborn about that in the beginning too. [/QUOTE]
