County sanitarian Amanda McMichael says that brings the number of confirmed rabies cases in the county to 21 in the past year, 18 of which have been raccoons.
A local rabies task force has asked the county to look into the possibility of vaccine-infused bait to help address the problem.
McMichael says several hundred people came to recent rabies clinics to get their pets vaccinated.
If left untreated, rabies can be fatal.
