Have you used any flea treatment on him lately? May be an idea to treat him if you haven't. Have you changed your washing powder recently? He may have an allergy to that or anything you use on your floor or carpets.

What food does he eat? If you are feeding dry then suggest you look at some of the premium recommended foods on the sticky in the Nutrition Section. He may need something extra for his flakey dry skin. In the meantime you could perhaps see if he would eat something "oily" like(boneless) sardines once or twice a week.
