A dog itching and scratching will automatically make you think of fleas. However, there are several other factors that can cause skin itchiness, ranging from allergies to hormonal problems or stress.

Fleas* in dogs cause itching and hair loss. The most common flea in dogs is the cat flea, Ctenocephalides felis, followed by the dog flea, C. canis. Ticks* are an external parasite of the dog and can spread diseases such as Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, babesiosis, and ehrlichiosis. They can also cause a neurological disorder known as tick paralysis. Heartworm disease in dogs is spread by mosquitoes and is spread by the parasite Dirofilaria immitis.
