Believe it or not I JUST found this out - deodorant!! A lady at work was putting deodorant on her leg and I said "what the..." and she had mosquito bites. Someone else said it was true. Try it!!

1% Hydrocortisone Cream Anti-Itch Cream with Aloe. I live in east Texas where mosquitoes are the biggest and baddest. This works within 2-3 minutes. I buy it at the Family Dollar store (it's their own brand) for about $1.

Rubbing alcohol always works for me! When I was younger, my aunt would pop out the roller ball and clean out empty roll-on deodorant containers, fill it with rubbing alcohol, and use in case of mosquito bites. It was wonderful! Just roll the perfect amount of alcohol over the bite and as soon as the alcohol evaporated, the itch was gone!
Hmmm...do they still sell roll-on deodorant? That's a good idea to keep for my daughter!

Once we went to visit LA and my daughter got huge bites. We gave her a bath with baking soda and it was instant relieve. We let her stayed in the bath tub for over 20 minutes. After her skin got dried we applied triple antibiotic to prevent an infection. Good Luck

Either put rubbing alcohol on it, or make a little X on it with you nail, it might hurt for a second, but then it makes the itching go away.

They have that new anti-itch medicine out its called anti-itch or something to that matter. You just drop some of it on the itch and the itch goes away. Its about the size of a marker. It works good.

cut a fresh onion and rub it on and around the bite. The juices help the itchy sensation go away

Don't itch them! they could get worse. Just put a little rubbing alcohol or men's colone on them. that will make them stop itching and will make them not as big or swollen

Put LOTS of Benadryl cream on the bites.

calamine lotion. It's pink and soothes the bite so they don't itch at all. But I think it got all fancy now, and you can get it in clear. You can usually find it in drugs stores everywhere.
