18 month old with unknown rash/bump? what does it sound like to you?

Question: three months ago my son woke up with 2 red bumps on his back. i didnt pay much attention, thought ant bites. well the next couple of days more appeared and old ones not clearing up. went to the doctor and she told me chicken pox. (had a feeling it wasnt, already had vaccine) about 2wks went by and they started getting worse. some stayed the same but others got bigger, filled with honey-colored pus.(not ozzing) took him back and doc said it was still pox but now infected from scrachting. was put on anti-biotics but no improvment. took him back after meds then the doc told me it was a staph infection and he needed a stronger med. while taking the new meds new ones appeared so i got frustrated and took him to the local ER. the doctor there told me they were all bug bites. (which i know is not possible). i then took him to another hospital & two diff. doctors told me they had no clue. we have ruled out staph, pox, infantigo, bites, scabies, mollescum contaguisom. any suggestion?

Answers:
Poor Little Buddy!!! Could it be possible he has infantile eczema? If not, I really think it is a staph infection/impetigo. It's strange that it started on his back, that's what's really throwing me off. They need to ABSOLUTELY make sure that it is not meningitis, which is commonly misdiagnosed as chicken pox. I would suggest aking him to a pediatric hospital, if possible, in your area. Any fever, diarrhea, vomitting??? WOW! This is really a stumper... I feel so bad for you two, please keep us updated!
