Answers:

I would go see a doctor if you have had the hives for a month. And I would also take a good look at what you have been eating or drinking that might be different in that last month... you are most likely allergic to something. And if the antihistamine you are using isn't relieving the symptoms any, try a different one. There are many on the market so you may just need something else.
In the mean time, to take away the itch, take an old sock and put some oats into it... then take a warm bath and use the goo from the oats to put on the hives. I like having the oats in a sock so that as the oats get wet I have an easier time squishing out the liquid onto myself. It seems to work wonders. Hope this helps.
