Why am I so itchy?!

Went to go to bed and started itching Confused
All over my back, sides and hips and thighs. I've slathered myself in childs farm and have already had 4 antihistamines today so can't take any more
I just want to claw at my skin, it's insane! There's small red dots/spots that look a bit eczema ish but nothing I can see that is really obvious
Ideas, anyone?

Bed bugs

The obvious one is washing powder or liquid - recent change? Or perhaps soap?

I get very bad itching with my urticaria, but hard to tell without seeing it.

I recently had terrible itching on my hands, including lots of little pinpricks of blood under the skin and it was because I'd used a wet wipe at the health visitor clinic when usually I use Cheeky Wipes, so I had this horrible reaction for a day or two.

Can you get bed bugs without going anywhere?!

Showered using the same shower gel as usual about 6pm, no washing powder change. I don't tend to have sensitive skin usually
