Check your Science Diet label. Is there wheat or corn? If so, it might be worth a trial of a food change.

Here is the Science Diet site.

I don't know which of the formulas you are using, but I checked a few and they have wheat, corn, soy, egg, etc., even the sensitive skin formula has corn, egg, soybean oil.

IngredientsBrewers Rice, Ground Whole Grain Corn, Corn Gluten Meal, Pork Meal, Dried Egg Product, Soybean Oil, Flaxseed, Animal Fat (preserved with mixed tocopherols and citric acid), Chicken Liver Flavor, Potassium Chloride, L-Lysine, Iodized Salt, DL-Methionine, vitamins (L-Ascorbyl-2-Polyphosphate (source of vitamin C), Vitamin E Supplement, Niacin, Thiamine Mononitrate, Vitamin A Supplement, Calcium Pantothenate, Biotin, Vitamin B12 Supplement, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Riboflavin, Folic Acid, Vitamin D3 Supplement), Calcium Carbonate, Choline Chloride, Vitamin E Supplement, L-Tryptophan, preserved with Mixed Tocopherols and Citric Acid, minerals (Ferrous Sulfate, Zinc Oxide, Copper Sulfate, Manganous Oxide, Calcium Iodate, Sodium Selenite), Taurine, Beta-carotene, Rosemary Extract.




I'd ask the vet about trying one of the others I've mentioned. You can find Nutro pretty easily...but be sure to check the label as they are not all wheat free. We use the Rice and Lamb, although it does have some soybean oil in it:
