My dog has started itching and Little red bumps have appeared as well as now bigger fatty lumps what could this be? and is there anyway to treat it at home?

If his skin is itchy with red bumps, it may be an allergy or something like mites or fleas. You can start by bathing him in a hypoallergenic shampoo. If it continues or worsens, I would recommend taking him to a veterinarian as these bumps can also be a sign of bacterial or yeast infections in the skin. It may also be helpful to ask another question on the forum and attach pictures of the bumps and lumps.

Based on your description, it sounds like Amais may be dealing with allergies or an allergic reaction of some sort. There is a chance that he may have been bitten or stung by something and this could have lead to an allergic reaction. In any case, I would strongly suggest getting him in to see your vet right away in case this turns into a more serious reaction. While you are waiting to see your vet, you can give a dose of Benadryl. If he is around 60lb, you can give him 50mg of Benadryl every 8 hours. I would strongly suggest getting him in to be seen though.
