Bugs Washed Off Dog During Bath: Likely Not the Cause of Itching

Two bugs washed off a dog during a bath. The dog acted like it was being bitten on back legs for two weeks; vet found nothing. After bath, dog was calm until going in backyard, then symptoms returned. Worst at night.

Expert Opinion

Images are unclear. Fleas and some mites are the only common bugs that bite dogs and cause itching. The expert suspects the itching is unrelated to the washed-out bugs—possibly a food allergy (their own dog's itching resolved with fish-based diet). A clearer photo would help, but the expert believes the bugs are incidental.
