Ok. My dog muffin is about a year old and she was perfectly fine when she was younger and soon she had to get fixed but she had her period and I guess we couldn't get her fixed and then she got tape worm. After that she got fleas and I washed her and did what i could hopefully got rid of it. Soon after that she began to scratch very hard near her butt and lost hair on her tail near the top and on the side of her back legs not very much hair. I changed her food a couple times and then changed it agian and she is growing back some of the hair but still bites herself, is it dry skin, mites, or still fleas ? What should I do? PLS help!

How long have you left this poor dog in this condition?! Please go see a vet, it could be a number of things.
It sounds like an allergic reaction. WHat type of food did you switch her to? if it is sold at walmart or the grocery store it won't help at all. She could be allergic to corn? beef? etc.
She could even have mange, and there are different types. This is why you GO SEE A VET>

She still has fleas. They like to hang out around her tail and she is pulling her hair out to get to them. A flea bath is not enough, get some good stuff from the vet.

It sounds like she has mange. Take her to a vet and they will do a scraping on her skin and find out what kind it is. Don't put it off because it will get worse with out treatment.
