Does anyone have any proven methods for stopping mosquito bites from itching? A few of them are now massive and I scratched two of them so hard that I bruised the skin beside them.
All this because I put insect repellent on my arms and neck for my zoo based Christmas party but didn't think about the exposed skin from my ripped jeans and they had a FEAST.
Calamine lotion or an antihistamine
I did the antihistamine and unfortunately didn't work. So I'll have to obtain some calamine lotion instead.
Try both of them together
