I am covered in bug bites!!
I've just got back from Spain, where I didn't get a single bite, and within two days of being at home I am being eaten alive!! I've got 10 bites already. They're horrible itchy although I'm trying not to scratch them. I've started putting Savlon (anti-septic cream) on them and have changed the sheet on my bed. What else can I do to get rid of them? Where could I be getting all these bites from?!

The cream will stop the itching, and by not itching the bite sgo away. Quite simple, no matter how uncomfortable. Whenever you get a bad itch, don't scratch it, eventually, though uncomfortable, the itch wears off. Hopefully where you live, the weather will be getting cooler for fall, and as it does, bugs die out. If you live in a hotter climate, by winter they should be gone.
