She says they itch and they haven't gone away. What could this be from and what can I do about it?

This is more like a rash and not bites. The mattress is quite old.

If it's just an itchy rash it could be bed bugs, dirty bed sheets, ezema, allergic reaction etc. If she has other symptoms like fever it could be septsis.

She appears to be having an allergic reaction to something. Has she been exposed to any substances that she knows she is allergic to. Have you changed laundry detergent or anything else that could have triggered a reaction? If you can't figure out what may have caused it, or if it continues, I would highly recommend taking her to the doctor.

i would say she may have got into poisen oakbut that would be on her arms..Chicken Pox, or the starting of same. If rase goes to neck, or face, chicken pox would be my answer.
I would run her by a clinc however.

did you change detergent or is she using any new bath or shampoo products? Could be an allergic reaction.
