Last night while we were all outside enjoying the 4th I had got biten by misquitos and now they are itching really bad. I have red bumps all over my legs. What can I put on them to stop the itching? Please give some suggestions. I cant stand the itch. Help!

I am allergic to those things. It's awful. I found that placing an ice cube on them, will reduce the itch. And, use a cortazone cream. Good luck sugar.

You better go to a phramacy and ask for some itch guard. Actually its not a big issue but its better to take some good care like you are thinking right now. I cannot tell you the name of the medicines as we are from different countries and the medicine that we get here will not be avilable there. Anyway take care of it and do like i suggested.

You probably have received many responses already but the cream that i use to soothe bites especialy itchy ones is "soov". I don't know if they sell it here in the USA as I bought it when I was in New Zealand last.
I don't know mossy bites either so as soon as I get bitten, I apply it and the next day its gone down or doesn't itch anymore!

Tea tree oil works great. It numbs, as well as heals. Fortunately, mesquito bites dissapate quickly. Unlike chigger bites. Those take a little longer. Use the tea tree oil sparingly, as it is very drying to the skin. Dap it just on the bite, maybe every 6 hours. Hope that helps.
