Itchy/sore neck on cat

my little boy who is 1 year this week has recently been scratching away at his neck causing a bald patch and making it bleed. He does seem to be a bit OCD in his cleaning too. I first saw the sore patch in Dec and we took him to the vet and he had a long lasting injection to take away the itchiness and it cleared up.
Now he has another one and has had a lower dose injection and some tablets but the sores don't seem to be clearing up. He has 2 this time, one either side of his neck where he scratches.
The vet thinks he has possible allergies...has anyone's cat had anything like this??
I feel so sorry for him when he scratches as the sores must be causing him discomfort.
