What Causes Itching On Legs?

My legs have been itching for the past 8 days, and I haven t slept in 3 days. I ve tried putting a lotion that s got Aloe and Menthol in it to numb the itching, but it still wears off after a few hours. To try to sleep, I took Benadryl to hope it would knock me out enough to put me to sleep. No dice. I took two Benadryl two hours ago, yet I m not tired and haven t been able to sleep.
