Brief Answer:
Please, look to see if there are bugs!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about these itches that you have reported. I will like you to look carefully to see if there are any bugs., Should you find just one, I will recommend that you go ahead and treat the entire house with insecticides to get rid of these bugs. If you do not find them, I may be more tempted to think this may rather report a form of an allergic reaction.

Look carefully and let's understand what is going on. I wish you well and hope to hear from you. Always feel free to request for more information and clarifications if need be.
