Yes, generally is the same. There are better ways to treat now than in recent years, at least the symptoms and long-term organ damage. See http://kidshealth.org/parent/infections/ ...
As for the itching, try a warm bath (not hot, not cold, a little warmer than cold) oatmeal or aloe product. There are several brands in the pharmacy. Some Benadryl (by mouth) is likely to help too. Not keep nails short and encourage him to scratch when awake.
Good luck, I hope he feels better soon!
