red bumps all over my body

I started out having red bumps mostly on my stomach and then they got redder, raised and spread out a little-- it first looked like a lot of mosquito bites all over.  Then it has spread all over my body but the ones on my stomach have almost completely covered it-- the areas are red, raised but spread out-- large circles all over.  They itch like crazy but they are not dry or flaky and they are not ***** or bloody.  Most of them look exactly like mosquito bites.  The one thing I have noticed is that they are in areas where I am not tan which are many as I am a fair skinned red-head. :-)  Any ideas what I might have-- I've tried benadryl- (ointment and pills) and tinactin and neither have worked.  Do I have Pevla (sp)?

The same thing is happening to me. Every time one heals I get another one on a different location. I even had one on my foot and breast.

like someone staring at you, its a feeling of knowing only you can't see them so its not real righty? Wrong ! See a doctor and get the cream. If you allow yourself to not be reassured and knowledgable of these little under the skin mites it can leave one with phsycological damadge.

I'm 11 years old and I have red bumps that are very itchy and they look like mosquito bites and they only come around 7-9ish time I tried Benadryl and I went to doctor but he said he doesn't know and come when it happens but how am I supposed to go when he isn't there! And I showed him photos. ( it's mostly on my hands and feet and little in my stomach and elbows)
