My 8-week old, who is a rescue, has terrible dandruff and itching. Any ideas on what we can use? (He's vaccinated but not as much as he will be over the next couple of weeks.)

I have red spots on my hands that seem to get worse when I touch my feet, which have the same spots. The doctor says it's eczema, and cream seems to help my hands until I touch my feet to apply the cream there. No pain or itching. What should I do?
