itchy bumps and blisters

hi, about 2 and a half months ago i started getting small blisters on my feet and hands. they would leak a clearish fluid if popped. over time they have spreaded all over my body and some are just red bumps. i have them everywhere and in the last few dayson my genetals except from my face and neck. they are extremely itchy and have not responded to various forms of anti histamine or hydracortazone. i have changed washing detergents to a non biological one and i use no other chemicals or shower gels except from frangrance free soap and even these varieties have changed. my sheets have been thoroughly cleaned along with clothes to rule out bed bugs. about two weeks ago my girlfriend has started getting the same symptoms which i think rules out contact dermatitus and bed bugs anyway as we use the same stuff and sleep in the same bed.
PLEASE HELP!!!

Hello,
From these symptoms scabies should be ruled out. It is an infestation of the skin with the Sarcoptes scabiei mite. It is characterized by intense itching, usually at night and by small insect-type bites lesions on the skin. Diagnosis of scabies is made by scraping the skin and viewing the material under a microscope to see the characteristic mite or eggs.

I hope it helps. Take care and regards.

I think its a fungal infection, or any skin infection or disease. Do not out or use anything. and make sure you dont touch these. also make sure if you touch , then dont touch those hand to others. donot let other touch you. keep the skin clean. and show to to a skin specialist, it will be ok
avoid sun light and heat
