Beekeepers don’t feel when they get stung after a while and also don’t get any itching. Why does this not happen with mosquitos? They still itch after being stung so many times over the years.

You do, you probably just don’t get bitten enough for the immunity to build. I was highly allergic as a kid, now I barely notice them.
Generally speaking, you actually do gain a degree of immunity. You personally are probably not being bitten enough to develop it per year, which would likely be a lot.
I definitely notice a difference, different countries with different mosquitoes hit way harder.
I’m either immune or naturally resistant. Most of my mosquito bites heal completely within a day.
This may be because I grew up on literal swampland (south Florida) and got bit all the time.
