    Also to prevent infection in the scratches apply a small amount of Original Neosporin that DOES NOT contain Painkiller. Just plain Neosporin.

    I will check the fiber for mites and apply some plain Neosporin. Do you think the Neosporin could help the bumps too?

    If they are actually bites yes, but if they are just a part of the frogs skin or an irritation caused by something in the enclosure then no. Look really hard for any mites. If the bumps aren't red or do not look somewhat inflamed they may be just an irregularity in the frog's skin. You don't want to apply too much of the ointment, but maybe try a small amount on the bumps to see if the begin to recede.

    I looked for mites, but did not see any. I will continue to keep my eye out for them though. The bumps deifnitely don't look red or irritated, some of them look like they have a little white head on them though. But it is so tiny it is hard to tell. But it is different than the white spots they normally have.
    I put applied little bit of ointment on both the bumps and the scratches with a q-tip. How often should I apply it? Once a day? I feel so bad stressing her out so much.

    You can do it once per day if you are worried about stressing her out too much. Keep a close eye out for anything odd like more bumps appearing and try to find what scratched her and smooth it down so it doesn't happen again.
