I try not to scratch them. I sometimes put that Vicks Vapor Rub stuff or Benadryl on it and leave them alone until they go away.
It's good though because I rarely ever get them anymore |

I use off! and try to avoid wearing any perfume or cologne. Don't scratch, as tempting as they are.

I use "After Bite". It only soothes the itch though. How do you speed up the bite to go away?

How do you speed up the bite to go away? after bite never worked for me.  usually i spray hot water [ as hot as i can stand ] over the bite for awhile. at first it itches like CRAZYYY. and then after a little while, it subsides and soon enough, the itch disappears for like 8 hours. using a blowdryer also works. i have no idea how to get rid of the bite though. i usually just dont touch it at all.

I can't help but scratch at them!
I slap, make x's, spit on them too  It's not always too effective, but it's good temporarily |
