My kitten recently developed the same symptoms. I've also been feeding her Friskies and today when I fed her she wouldn't even eat her food. I'm wondering if this is an allergy. I cannot afford to take her to the vet this week but hopefully I will be able to next week. First, a small bump near her ear started growing and this morning I noticed she had a patch of hair missing near the back of her head and the bump has grown a lot. She's an indoor cat so it's not likely she was injured in some way.

First line of treatment should be "Revolution" to take care of parasites. Need to get to vet for a skin scraping and if neg, antibiotics will be tried. Give one week and if it does not look better a culture will be needed to test for things like fungi infection.
