One suggested a bath in mayonnaise, one instructed me to take Benadryl quick dissolve strips every few hours. What ended up working the best for me was Eucerin cream and petroleum jelly. Of course, I was very slippery for a few days. I hope things get better for you!

I can't remember if you're vaccinating or not. And if it is, well, natural immunity is best ;D Hope you figure it out soon. Could it be measles? or Rubella?

With it going from kid to kid it probably isn't an allergy thank goodness! Besides the potential of being a virus, have you used any new lotions, soaps, detergents, etc in your house???
