Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. It looks like she may have a rash or skin infection. If not too many, often a medicated antibacterial shampoo is enough to treat. If she is itching, bleeding or has a large number or bumps or pustules then she should see a vet to be sure she doesn't need systemic medications as well.
