How To Treat Itchy Bumps On Skin?

I have itchy bumps all over my body. I don t get any during the day but when I get in bed it gets worse. At first I thought bed bugs but the bumps are not red they look like tiny mosquito bites. They started around the same time I got a satin pillowcase. Could I be allergic to satin? Or is it bed bugs? My husband doesn t have this problem.
