Scratches: It can be that you are doing it in your sleep, this happens very often. If you have seen a bug you should use some product to exterminate them, even if you did it a short time ago. And if it keeps happening or you see that it gets worst, you can always see a dermatologist, get a physical exam and see what the exact problem is.
