I just used A&D Ointment on my tattoos, usually resolved the itching for me.

Good luck.

Slap it lightly and briskly. It numbs the area.

Couldn't be sure without seeing it, but if you picked at these scabs, you may have scared you skin now. PICKING SCABS CAUSE SCARRING! If you can't stop yourself from picking at your tattoo, I would suggest not getting any more.
I would suggest to put on some unscented hand lotion, in very small amounts, when it gets bad. But if I understand you right, it's not just the itching, but you want to pick at it.

Mind over matter...
It is really simple, just don't pick the damn thing. Period!
