Dry skin: bathe hi with a cream soap and moisturize his skin right after, that would help him sleep better, wouldn't advise giving more of antihistamines at this age, if not controlled please revisit his doctor or an allergist, good luck

Why itching?: It is medically safe to give the benadryl; however, the question leads to another - why is he having bouts of itching? Ideally, determining and treating the cause will be more effective then treating the symptoms. Does he have eczema? Does he have scabies? Does he have an allergy to the bedding/detergent used to clean the bedding? Consider the sources and eliminate them - or see local doc for eval
