Hi ! Possibly it is due to some insect bite which caused this or due to some kind of allergy to some unknown article/agent present in the store. The other possibility is an infectious skin pathology, which was transmitted to them by you getting the infection first. I would suggest you to visit your family physician/skin specialist soon and get yourselves clinically examined for further management. Till that you can go for an anti allergic to get some relief from the itching. Wishing you all an early recovery.
