Nothing beats the old “home remedies”.
Vinegar….might sting at first, but it works pretty well.It can be found at target or Walmart by mosquito medicine. if there are any that are super itchy, an ice pack helps. I like that I can apply them as often as needed. I have used apple cider vinegar, vodka (or another alcohol, it’s the alcohol that works) on a bandaid, and mentholatum in the past. A cool bath, maybe with epsom salts and/or oatmeal will help with the itch. I know how she feels! I’m the one that attracts all the mosquitos.Also my husband aunt recommended Aloe Vera. Soak him in warm epsom salt bath(apple cidar vinegar works great too), give him benadryl and if you have or know somebody with a fresh aloe plant that works great otherwise Ive found benadryl gel or stick are the best 2nd option! My son is allergic and swells really bad and that’s whay doctor recommended that Ive found works best!.Ambesol works pretty well…sounds crazy, I know.A paste of baking soda–or a dab of vodka.Dab of dish soap on each one seems to help with itching and swelling.This sounds crazy, but a paste of meat tenderizer & baking soda put on a Band-Aid work great on itchy bites.We use calamine lotion or the skeeter stick.Florida has these horrible little bugs that the bite itches worse than mosquitoes - aloe vera gel stopped the itch.You can use the inside peel of a banana.Adding baking soda to bath water helps a lot too.I get terrible bites and this only needs applied twice a day for me! Even high-level cortisone doesn’t help me! If they’re really driving the kid crazy, I know this sounds terrible, but, if you can get some, use just a dab of Proctosol (prescription).Here’s the specific list of tips from you all from our Facebook page: The next day we found mosquito bite after mosquito bite all over her tiny body. Regardless, I forgot to get out the bug spray. I seemed to have a memory lapse (or maybe I just enjoyed watching her play without any reservations). The other day, my 5 year old spent the entire afternoon and most of the evening outside on my parent’s farm.
