The only way to know for sure what it is, is to take her to a vet.

I agree. It can be a number of things -- even possibly being mange, but only a vet would be able to tell the best!

You're welcome to post pictures anyhow so we can give you our own best guess, but still take her to the vet to get a correct diagnosis

If it's just hot spots then try the Aquaphor cream. Wal-Mart carries it. My son's dog got hot spots and that cream cleared it right up.
