Itchy, Red Scalp!

Everytime I try to apply Rogaine (5%) twice a day, my scalp, where I applied it, itches like nothing I have ever experienced before. And, if I scratch, my scalp becomes very irritated and red.

I've tried taking 1000 mg of Fish Oil (softgel form), once in the morning and another after dinner, and its helped some; If I only put one application on a day, my scalp doesn't itch.

I've also tried using Nizoral shampoo (1%) every three days, and Aveda Pure Performance Shampoo and Conditioner inbetween. But, it still itches if I apply more than once.

The directions for Rogaine state that it takes between two to four hours for it to dry, but for me it takes at least eight to ten hours (depending on the climate).

If it takes that long to dry for ONE application, is it really necessary to apply another one?

Would using the 2% Nizoral make any difference?

Should I up the dosage of the Fish Oil (example: 1000 mg to 1200 mg)?

Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated. :)
