Child With Dry Itchy Rashes On The Neck And Shoulder. What Is It?

my 3 year old daughter had two small bumps that in four days time, has become an approx. 4 very dry, red rash that she is constantly scratching , on her neck and is spreading toward her shoulder . There is no other spots or rashes anywhere else on her body. What would this be and how can I treat, both the rash and the itching?
