What Causes Severe Itching On The Scalp?

For the past few weeks my scalp has felt overly sensitive and itchy. I do have allergies to,grass and dust mites. I got dust mite pillow covers for my mattress and pillows and I’ve been using a shampoo for dry and itchy scalp but it hasn’t really helped much. What the heck can be causing this? My husband has recently lost his job and we don’t have medical insurance so I’m trying not to go to the doctor for this. Any suggestions?
