Hi, I'am Dr Suresh K Yadav MD (paediatrics), I had gone through your question and understand your concerns,
It seems like viral illness . If otherwise baby is active , accepting feed ., passing urine you need not worry much .You can give antihistamine medicine like cetrizine for itching , and locally calamine lotion can be applied for symptomatic relief.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.
Take care
