Allergic reaction – think about if you got little itchy bumps on your skin — dogs are similar Take him/her to the vet asap please asthere could be bumps in otherplaces of body and or swelling thatcan cause other issues / death
Itchy bumps could be flea bites, or “hot spots” they will itch even if the fleas have been killed. As any bug bite itches, these itch worse because they have the “venom” in the bites from the flea. I would suggest getting some benadryl for the itch. Get a cream and apply lightly to the bumps or itchy area. Do not allow the dog to lick it off. It may make him sick.You can also try giving him a bath in water with baking soda in it, this also helps the itch and soothes any sore spots from scratching. Baking soda will not harm him if he drinks it. I would use one cup of baking soda for every two gallons of water. If you are doing this in your bathtub, add one cup of baking soda then soak the dog in the water until he is completely covered, paying close attention to the itchy areas. I would do this a couple of times a week for about two weeks then wait and see what happens. If this doesn’t help then your dog may need to see the vet.
fleas, mange, allergic reaction to shampoo or plant, ants, biting flies. try bathing in oatmeal shampoo, spraying with flea spray, and putting front line or something like that on it.
It could be allergic to something, or have fleas, or ticks, or anything like that! You should take it to a vet as soon as possible and find out what’s wrong! Good Luck!!!

More than likely it’s flea bites or some other little critter bite. Try giving your dog a bath in medicated shampoo…that should help.

My guess would be flea bites.
My suggestion would be to go and get flea and tick shampoo and give your dog a nice bath…after that buy him one of those flea and tick colors.
I hope I helped!
