What Causes Random Itching All Over Body Before Falling Asleep?

Right before I fall asleep I get itchy all over. It usually starts when I'm just about under and then I'll feel a small itch in a random place on my body. I try to ignore it but the more I try the worse the itch becomes. Finally I'll give up and scratch it only to have another itch pop up somewhere else. It keeps me awake and cannot be ignored. It's not one particular area on my body but random places all over. My husband says it's mind over matter and that if I ignore it I'll fall asleep. This happens every night and has always been this way for as long as I can remember. What can I do about it? I would love to just fall asleep like a normal person when I'm tired.
