You need to bring her to the vet.
She may have a severe skin allergy or a skin disease, mange.

Very possibly it is allergies. You would need your Vet to do a skin scraping to determine if it is mites or a fungus or something else. I wouldn't let it go untreated any longer. Your little one sounds like she is miserable with the itching. If it's allergies, your Vet may suggest a change in her food.
