| Ack! Bug bites!!!!! I fraking hate bug bites! Anyone have any home remedies to help me out? I got two a few days ago. They swelled up larger than a silver dollar. They are kind of going away now but when they start to heal I get another round of very severe itching. Just not I found another one on my arm!!!!!! I've been icing them but that's about it.the one on my arm is already bigger than a quarter. Lucky Uni gets Comfortis to keep the buggers away. I need a steroid shot lol. Help?

| I used to joke about putting the Advantix for big dogs on me because I am allergic to mosquitoes if I get more then 3 or 4 I have to go on antibiotics its terrible the itch but they also hurt and swell and look terrible too. Cortisone 10 is the only thing I have found that helps me and I have tried many.

| does Benedryl go with rum? LOL I've tried all the topical stuff and none of it really works. Allergy meds make me sleepy and wonky.
