There are a number of causes for skin allergies in dogs. Many of them can be controlled, so knowing what is causing allergies in your dog can help you prevent his discomfort.- Inhalant allergies - These may be attributable to dust, dust mites, pollen, and molds which are found both inside and outside your home. The best way to prevent this is to regularly clean your house. Make sure that you clean even the smallest corner in a room. You’ll never know where your dog may go into. The windows should also be kept clean. Rugs and carpets should also be steamed to prevent the formation of allergens.
Flea allergies - Most dogs including your Bichon Frise are allergic to fleas, specifically flea saliva. When a flea bites your dog, he will experience an allergic itch causing him to excessively scratch and lick the affected area. If your dog has fleas, use
hypoallergenic shampoo which also contains ingredients that would combat these insects
. Food allergies - Commercial dog food often contains ingredients which are harmful to your dog and may even be probable causes of dog allergies. Some dogs are allergic to pork, beef and chicken. Give only high-quality dog food so your dog gets to be healthy and allergy-free at the same time.

Organic shampoo often contains herbal ingredients which help soothe your dog’s itchy and irritated skin.
