Oouch! I've never been stung *knock on wood*. But my brother has and he had an allergic reaction which made it even worse. Hope your nephew is okay now

Try apple cider vinegar for bug stings. I hadn't gotten stung by anything since childhood until just a couple of years ago. I got stung by a yellow jacket that landed on me while I was asleep. Had no clue he was in my apartment, until I turned over, then......ouch! Not knowing at first what was going on, being in my state of half-awake, still half-asleep, I brushed my arm where I had been stung, and then he got me again on my thumb! When I realized what had happened, I immediately put some apple cider vinegar on a cotton ball, as I had remembered reading on the Internet that apple cider vinegar and honey are good for bee stings. Anyhow, I put the apple cider vinegar on the cotton ball, and taped it to the sting for several minutes. The stinging went away almost immediately! After several minutes, I put a drop of honey on a band-aid and put it over the sting. Not only did the stinging go away right away, never to return, but it never itched later on, either!
