Little bugs, is it maybe mites? You can google read up on mites and bearded dragons to learn more to see if it's that. Have you seen an exotic vet at all to raise your concerns and get a baseline on your dragon's health overall? It's something I wish we'd done when ours was little, it was months before we figured out how sick she was, she hid it so well (she had a respiratory infection from her petsmart days and luckily, survived and is still kickin).
You asked for an alternative to sand substrate suggestion too, I use repticarpet. Others also use tile and also adhesive shelf liner. The tile files the nails down I understand. I don't know anything about bioactive but if it's loose I'd still stay away from it. Not worth the risk. Good luck!
Edit: sorry I forgot at the top you had said you saw a vet.
