<DIV>You mentioned that he starts itching as soon as he hits the finished
basement carpet!! How long has it been down? Has it been cleaned and
with what? What kind of fiber is it made from? Is it treated with
Scotch Guard?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>A lot of carpet contains formaldehyde, which can be an irritant--also
carpet dyes, cleaners, coating, etc.</DIV>
<DIV>Does he react with itching when he goes in through another entrance or does
he only go in through the basement?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Just food for thought.</DIV>
