Try diluted white vinegar to neutralize the flea bite. It will sting a bit, but then the pain and itch should be gone.

lavender oil dabbed on the bite will soothe the itch temporarily. Taking an antihistamine tablet will have a longer-lasting effect.
You can also use antihistamine cream or lotion, but if you do, you MUST stay out of the sun because the combination of the cream and the sun can cause serious damage to your skin.

I'm not sure if it works with flea bites, but it works wonders for mosquito bites.... Hope it helps:
I know this will sound weird.... But slice a lemon (i used a lime) in half, heat-up a clean pan, place the half lemon (or lime), sliced part down in the pan, basically cook it until brown.
Wait until it's not too hot, and place in the affected area.
You'll be amazed what a simple thing will do.

"AfterBite" is a good product for eliminating the itch of bug bites. It's essentially a "amonia" stick - smells awful, but works!
