Suggest Remedy For Itchy Red Circles On Forearms With Feeling Of Crawling

I have dime sized red circles on my forearms. I have felt like small, microscopic itching organisms are crawling on my face, ears and arms. The red circles are not itchy but the irritation is all from the feeling of small things crawling on me. It is annoyingly itchy but not intense to the point of scratching, only the need to wipe or rub. I ve noticed about 15 of these red dot on my right forearm and about 5 on left forearm. There are a few single red dots on my legs as well. Scabies?
