You'll probably get lots of advice on this one. My scalp has been super itchy too, though I haven't scratched a wound into it...yet. Tea tree shampoo and/or oil was recommended and though my head still itches, I'm told it works wonders for most.
One other thing that came immediately to mind when I read your words was to do a mayo (or Miracle Whip if that is what you have in the house) treatment. Slather it in there well, and pile it up on the head and keep it in for as long as you can today. You could also wrap/clip some Saran Wrap around it for extra heat. Then shampoo and condition as usual. It might go a long for making both your scalp and your hair feel better.
Good luck!
