Hmm. Well, I don't have that specific problem. I've had deodorant that made me itch, I stopped using it. And I've had dry skin on my legs itch LIKE CRAZY after shaving them, I used a clear formula bug-bite itch relief lotion for that with a little bit of success. Switch to all natural products, maybe? I've heard good things about Origins. There's an Origins counter at the Macy's store. Downside is, they're a fancy make-up/body company so they're expensive (at least I think so.)
If you want something cheaper and natural, maybe try a soft body scrub made of brown sugar and a light oil, like grapeseed. Easy enough to make at home. You can use epsom salts instead of the sugar, but that might make you itchier? Have you considered that it may be the water where you live? Do you have hard water there?

I ITCH LIKE CRAZY ALL THE TIME!! I have 3 - 4 shampoos and conditioners just so I can switch between 'em 'cuz I get used to one and start getting super dry and itchy again. I have to hydrate like CRAZY after every shower, doesn't matter what time of year. I use a plain, unfragranced body wash that's super hydrating. Generic brand. I experimented like crazy, and the best I get is the moisturizing plain body wash from target and then a simple lotion. Anything oily, smelly, or too complicated KILLS me. I tried fancy shit, body butters, everything. Anything heavy was uncomfortable. Anything pretty and smelly was uncomfortable. Shea butter works, goats milk soaps are ok. (I have some if you want to try!) I put lotion on immediately after showering and have a couple to switch between. Shampoo and lotion was the hardest to figure out. And facial moisturizers. But, It's tolerable now. And gold bond lotions are magical. They have sample sizes at Target or WalMart fairly often.
