Morphology
Both constituents are clearly pejorative nouns and their combination functions as a straightforward derogatory intensification; the intended meaning (an insulting term for a person, typically a woman) follows directly from knowing 'bitch' and 'bag'. There is no idiomatic or metaphorical shift away from the literal insulting senses, so a learner who knows both words would be able to infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
The slang bitch bag likely comes from joining two insults: bitch (a rude word for a nasty person) and bag (an old rude word for a woman). The image is like a 'bag' full of complaints, so the phrase is used to mean someone who is 'always criticizing or bothering others'.
