I have dealt with dogs with the same. I have a vet dermatologist Ive used. She is the specialist they use for University of Florida.
It is the body reacting to allergens. T dog is right on point. Its usually a deep bacterial infection. This chain reacts into the ears, eyes and skin out of whack. Typical vets just treat the flare up symptoms and never get to the main cause. So it keeps recurring.
Usually it takes the diet, Probiotics, antibiotics for the infection, The shampoo several times a week, and an apoquel or similar treatment.
If the ears are swollen shut.....over time the scar tissue will build up and they will lose the hearing in them.
Once you get to the root and treat them diligently you can treat it and get it under control. It is a slow painstaking process though. But I found once you get it whipped it is easily managed in the long run.
Good luck and hope it helps
