Is she itching a lot? Or just shedding?

I haven't noticed her itching but my other dog is alot and I don't see his fur but he's blonde color so it's hard to see but she's black and it's everywhere I just thought maybe they were allergic to the shampoo this groomer used I haven't used this groomer in a while my other one shut down I used them before and they did a great job just my blonde pom is itching like crazy and has red spots on his skin from itching and the other one has fur everwhere

I wonder if the groomer would give me a discount to have them bathed again. Whenever I bath them they come out smelling horrible and look awful. I try and just have them groomed every 6 weeks. How many days should I give them the benadryl?

You can give the benadryl just until the symptoms resolve. The bath will do more for them than the benadryl will.

You can certainly ask about the bath at the groomer's and see what they say.
