My chocolate lab scratches constantly. His skin has small red spots all over. He is treated for fleas regularly. Any ideas?

Just a thought... Has he been around something new lately? Maybe he has had an allergic reaction to something, and is not itching..Those red spots could be a Rash, or just from where he has been scratching his self so much! I would take him to the vet.. Hope he gets better! =)

there are so many possibilities for this constant scratching.. i would suggest you take your dog to the vet.. it could be a bug, like mange, or it may be allergies of some kind, plant or food..
i hope the vet can help with a diagnosis and treatment..
