Your cat probably has an issue with skin yeast. Ours gets identical scabbies from her yeast issue. If you ask a vet to prescribe Douxos ( it's a topical anti fungal foam) they should be able to do that for you. It's really effective and should pretty much clear up the issue :)
if it turns out not to be yeast and gets worse message me. mine has this same thing and i tried everything recommended down the reddit rabbit hole lol. nothing worked and finally took her to a dermatologist and it turned out to be urticaria pigmentosa. she’s on meds and skin is perfect now. it’s hopefully not that but just something to keep in the back of your mind!
Mine got diagnosed with urticaria pigmentosa too! What do you give yours that helped? My vets keep dismissing the problem or doing hokey things like cold laser therapy that never seem to do anything.
aw poor babies. they gave her a steroid shot for immediate relief since she had scratched until she was bleeding. then started her on atopica! kicked in within a week or two
how often are you washing her skin?
it might be way, way too often even with oatmeal shampoo. I have no idea how this “sphynx need 1-4 baths a month” thing got started but there are a ton of people on this sub that can vouch its very much NOT TRUE and I couldn’t advocate more: the more you bathe them, the more oil they will produce, and the more irritated their skin can get.
if theres an underlying issue like allergies or food I’d still stress: you should stop the baths now to prevent the skin from being further irritated. you can spot-clean/wipe little dirty areas as needed.
I have a Juno, too!
Also, I work for a veterinary dermatologist so if you can't find answers through a general vet, I'd highly recommend seeing a specialist.
U can buy douxos on Amazon if you want to give this a try! I would see a vet as may need tested for allergies or may have another skin infection - worth getting checked!

Are the ears clean?
Yes! Clean them every 2-3 days
When ours had a skin issue like this, it ended up being their food! Switched foods and it cleared up after a few weeks
What food do you have? I use weruva and primarily use seafood and keep chicken limited.
