I Am Getting Some Itchy Skin Rash From My Husband

Hi my husband started with an itchy rash back in February. it started with a couple of what looked like insect bites and then spread and covered his torso . It then spread down his legs and he itched so bad he bled. I then started with a similar rash by the end of March and the itching was unbearable all over the tops of legs, buttocks and under breasts and on torso. It also looked like small insect bites on my arms. The itching is not as bad now but can still come and go and the blisters under my breasts are quite bad. My daughter now seems to be starting with the same thing and although me and my husband are not itching as much we still have the bumps and blisters. I have been to the doctors but they do not know what it is and suggested bed bugs?? Do you have any ideas what this could be? I am 46 and was diagnosed with breast cancer in March 2009 and I am taking Tamoxifen. I am 5ft 3in and weigh 10st. My husband is 47 and my daughter 16
