Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain it seems more to be like an allergic reaction to any unknown allergen/irritant and in case if there are numerous mosquito bites the rashes ate also due to allergic reaction to the chemical present in mosquito bite..
Of not mosquito bites it is still allergic reaction to something else..
I would suggest you to give her anti allergics like Benadryl or Allegra..
Apply a Steroid ointment over the bumpy and rashes..
Do cool compresses..
Ibuprofen can be given to reduce inflammation..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
