Itchy Corgi! help

Hi friends,

Anyone experiencing your dog scratching a lot? My Chloe just started this last month, it lasted a few days, then went away. Now it's back. We take her swimming at the beach, maybe salt water dries her skin?? She does not have fleas, I have combed & checked everywhere, often. I started giving her collodial oatmeal/aloe shampoo baths to heal her skin. Also, where she is red (no open areas) I put olive oil base with tea tree oil. I hope it's not a food allergy, from what I hear food allergies generally affect the feet and chin, etc. She's been scratching with her back legs on the middle sides of her body, thighs, and belly. I know, this can be so many things, but if someone has any great remedy for the time being I'd love to here what you might use. Thanks so much

Ummm, embarrassed to say my hubby always makes her a tiny plate of "people food" (bad man) when we eat dinner. We bathe her twice a week. We take her swimming at the beach on Saturdays & Sundays. Sometimes we bathe her just once a week, we don't want to over-bathe her. We will rinse her off with fresh water. I started using colloidal oatmeal/aloe shampoo. I'm thinking of adding some drops of teatree oil to it that I have, but I haven't done that yet.
