Have you been told your dog has allergies??? Maybe even the allergy tests show it is allergic to 'everything'. Well, I've discovered some interesting information! Please read this article on Scabies Mites an extremely difficult mite for your vet to find. http://www.thepetcenter.com/exa/mites.html
The good news is there is a test, that you can do which this article describes in detail!!! Also there is an easy cure, 6 days of giving your dog the monthly Ivermectin wormer I have used for all "our gang" for 15 years.
Ivermectin is not USDA approved for this application, or in the monthly wormer form I use, but the medicine is approved for use in HartGuard a monthly canine heartworm medicine. Please discuss with your vet, giving your dog this treatment. I personally would take the chance in a heartbeat if one of our dogs was suffering from what had been diagnosed as allergies, especially since the Scabies mite can be transferred to humans.
I hope I have at least helped one dog by taking the time to post this information
