Pup has bad skin problem, Rash, Alleriges, Yeast inf.???

well i noticed pretty quick and started putting lotion and a human skin sort-of moistrzier/ insect repelent. and kepp her inside and it got much better fairly quickly but she went crazy in the house poop,chewing so i made a place for her outside in a cleaned shed and left outside and 2or3 weeks it got worse all down her spine , biting, open sores ,raw skin, scabs. i givng her flea and tick treatment and dont seem to help seemed to get worse since summer. everywhere else seems to be ok just on her back along the spine where she can reach to scratch..by her butt. have no money just been in serious car accident and am completely stressed. hate to see her like that!! any advice or anything home remedies cheap meds, or just info greatly appericated and can send photos if would help thanks a million in advance!!|||Is she frontlined? That would be my first question. Yeast looks like little water blisters and can be treated with rubbing alcohol in small areas or in larger areas with miconizole preparations like those for athlete's foot. The biggest concern would be mites which cause mange. You need to see a vet for a scraping and diagnosis. It might even be a different fungus of some sort, like ringworm.





I doubt it is allergies. Dog allergies usually involve foot licking not so much skin reactions unless it is a flea problem. Poison ivy could be a possibility, but I doubt it. I would hedge my bet on fleas or mites.
