My little Lichi is quilling, and she's scratching and has dry skin. I've seen people talking about an oatmeal bath but How I do that? Do I just dump oatmeal in her bath or I put it in a pouch in the bath. Also, I use Jonhsons baby wash with vitamin E and aloe, can I wash her more often with that an not giving her oatmeal bath?

Be sure you don't wash your hedgie too often. That can cause dry skin as well.

I am a big fan of Aveeno bath. Just add some warm water to the sink and sprinkle in a little bit from the pouch. A little olive oil of vit E in the water could also help (not too much).
And as Firefly said, don't bathe too often or your problem will get worse.
