I have heard the same about oatmeal. shedding couple with springtime hormone elevation tends to result in extra itching. bathing can help.
I have not tried the oatmeal thing, but here is a link with instructions for dogs. on the left side of the screen there's a list of additional ways of using oatmeal in baths. looks interesting.

I think they would work. They work with humans and I've read about them being used for dogs, so why not.

It's shampoo that strips the oils. Soaking in an oatmeal bath wouldn't do that.
