Answers:
Although some people have suggested scabies, it doesn't strike me as sounding typical of scabies (location is usually first noticed on wrists). Sounds possibly like urticaria (hives), which could be an allergic reaction, or could be a physical urticaria, such as pressure urticaria. How long have you had this? Does heat, such as from a hot shower, make it worse? Is the rash worse after sitting for extended periods, or if you're sweaty? How big are the wheals (individual mosquito bite looking things)?

Try bathing with Aveeno, it;s an oatmeal powder that is made to mix with bathwater, you can find it at any drugstore. Mix one packet with warm water (not hot - heat will likely make the itching worse) and soak for as long as you comfortably can (15-30 minutes). OTC antihistamines such as Benadryl may help, but it's better to consult a doctor than trying to dose yourself with medications.

If you've had this rash for a while (weeks or months), you really should consult with a doctor, since there are some systemic conditions, including cancers, which can cause a persistent rash. Not to scare you, but they should be ruled out.

Other Answers:
use an ointment. Bacitracin it works great!

Put some antibiotic ointment on the bites. May actually be an allergic reaction to something. Try changing your laundry detergent & taking a Benadryl.

same with me..just put sume ointment thats what i did..its like a medicine that is bacteracin

scabies if so, head to the doc right away i heard it is awful and very contagious

I'll have to see these bites first before I could answer oooooooooo myyyyyyyyyyy goooooooooooosh you are bitten!!.

How long has it been going on? A doctor would be your best bet. Strangers on the internet can't tell you what's the problem is, especially since we can't see it! Why don't you want to see a doctor? It might seem embarrassing, but doctors have seen it ALL, so they definitely won't be phased by this! It could just be something simple, like a rash, but you don't want to mess around with health things in case it is something more serious!

It's probably acne. It was scabies, you'd have very painful blisters. Scrub it thoroughly, put some hydrogen peroxide on some cotton balls and cleanse the area, and then put hydro cortisone cream on it.

Hydrcortisone cream works well and helps with the itch. Do you think they are bug bites or something else?
