Hello,
itching can be due to various causes, common ones being-
- skin conditions-eczema, tinea, scabies etc
-diabetes itself if the sugar isn't controlled. -involvement of liver
-involvement of kidneys
etc
I would like to ask a few more questions here to confirm the diagnosis and then treat accordingly. I would advise you to consult a dermatologist online or offline, for proper management of your itch.

Scabies is an itchy skin condition caused by the microscopic mite Sarcoptes scabei. It is common all over the world, and can affect anyone. Scabies spreads quickly in crowded conditions where there is frequent skin-to-skin contact between people. Hospitals, child-care centers, and nursing homes are examples. Scabies can easily infect sex partners and other household members. Sharing clothes, towels, and bedding can sometimes spread scabies. This can happen much more easily when the infested pers...more

The condition most often occurs when people wear tight-fitting clothing that traps in moisture.
Wash the affected skin two to three times a day.
Keep the affected area dry.
Avoid excess affected skin irritation by wearing 100% cotton underwear.
Avoid fabric softeners, bleaches, or harsh laundry detergents.
Wash your workout clothes, underwear, socks, and towels after each use.
Keep your affected area, inner thighs, and buttocks clean and dry, especially after you exercise...more

Take bath after exercise with Cetrimide or Savlon soap. Avoid sweating at other times. Increased sweating can block the sweat and sebaceous glands at the hair follicles and cause boils to happen. You may apply Mupirocin cream twice a day till the boils completely resolve.

Please avoid repeating antibiotics frequently. If it is working that means it is a infectious cause. Please visit a dermatologist near your place and tell doc about getting a pus swab test for culture, when you have the pus pimples on scalp. After the test it will be easier for your dermatologist to give you an antibiotic which will be best effective. Please also use an antiseptic lotion - cetrimide lotion for cleaning of scalp thrice a week.(after the test)

Are you sure that your infection is scabies? If you are not sure, please send me a photo via private message. If you are sure, you can apply the following medication.
Lindane 1% lotion - apply from neck to toes completely. Leave it on for 8-12 hours. So it's easier if you leave it overnight. Then wake up in the morning and take a bath and wash it all away. You have to wash all your clothes, bedsheets, etc. Also, everyone at your home should take the same treatment with you.
