Every harassment or bullying episode should be recorded, even minor ones. This would help you establish a bullying pattern.

Make sure that you record dates, times, witnesses, and the behaviour itself.

Right keeping these records would help you present your case to HR and other higher ups when the need arises. And it would really help you if you tell the A team to stop.

Talk to the "bully-ers" and tell them how they are affecting you!

I think that this is a good first step. You are right that many of those who harass other people don't even know what they're doing and how it's affecting the victims. So as a first step, this is good.
