is there something wrong with Snow?

Yes, it sounds like fleas to me also. Sounds as though she developed a severe case of dermatitis from the fleas. Revolution always worked well for me when I was rescuing ferals but whatever you have at your disposal should be ok. Except for flea collars. It's been my experience that, not only are they not effective, years ago one of my cats lost her fur where the collar had been. Don't use them.

Today I checked Snow head to tail for fleas. I found a couple dead ones, but other then that they totally disapeared! That Advantage stuff really helped. Thanks everyone for your help and advice!

My mom and dad used Frontline on their cats, but the one cat has an allergy to it, and so they switched hers to Revolution. She's been good since. Just so you know that they aren't all alike, and if she gets a reaction from it, there are options.

Be sure you vacuum really really well in your house. If there were fleas, there are eggs. The eggs will hatch, and you'll have more fleas. And even if they don't bite Snow anymore, because of the Advantage (if you KEEP using it), they can still bite you. Advantage, or any other flea medicine, is not once and done. You have to make sure the rest are gone, exterminating if necessary. You don't want to be infested in the house, because that can be really bad!!!
