lol i have the same problem!
mmkay well I always hold an icecube
on it for like 2 minutes. it helps!
Theres nothing really you can do to
make them go away quicker-But just try not
to scratch them, that'll make them even
bigger & more painful.



hope I helped (:

I had a similar problem a while ago and you have my sympathies because it can drive you MAD!!

If you go to your local pharmacy, they will be able to recommend something based on how the bites look. They will also be able to give you an idea of what sort of cream you should be using.

My recommendation if they are very bad and as long as they are not cracked or broken is Hydrocortisone Cream. It helps relieve the itching and reduces the swelling.

In the meantime, DON'T scratch or they could get infected and that really won't be pleasent!

Dear itchy,
Put clear threw nail polish on it. Noone would no its there, and it will make it stop itching.

Well, idk if you're able to go out & buy remedies, so here are some homemade things you can do -

1. Vinegar, it takes the sting out.
2. Anti-Histamine (proof for those two - [Link](Mouse over link to see full location))

Yeah, if you can buy something, I suggest Anti-Bite or Calomine Lotion. They both work so so good & are under 5 dollars.

Just try not to scratch!! Scratching them will only make them stay longer, so avoid that! :]

Here is another link that has information ALL about mosquito bites - it wouldn't let me copy any specific sections, but this link has really good and really interesting information... [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)

benadryl spray really works wonders for me. it makes it so they're not itchy so they can go away quicker.
