It's a possibility she may have scabies. It's very easy to get-you can get it by shaking hands with someone. Some people it starts on the hands, wrists, some it starts on the legs, thighs.
When she tans it aggrevates the mites under the skin and can keep you up at night scratching. She should ask her doctor for elimite cream-apply it ALL OVER HER BODY-CHIN TO TOES. Go to bed with it on and get up the next am wash it off and repeat one time in 7 days.
In the meantime wash EVERYTHING. Clean your beds well - as I'm sure you do.
I'm not saying this is what it is-but it sounds like it.
