There is Benedryl that you can buy over the counter at the pharmacy or call your doctor's answering service and they might call you in a prescription. Benedryl will probably help the itching, but it can make you sleepy AND if you are planning to drink alcohol, I wouldn't take it. Good luck with your bumps. You are lucky. My brother was bitten by fire ants and had an allergic reaction that was life threatening. Be well!

Ice packs will bring down the swelling if there is any. It won't do anything about the redness. Try Benadryl cream on the areas to stop the itching. This doesn't show; it is white cream but when it rub it in, it disappears.
Go ahead and wear your sexy outfit. It is dark in most places and no one will notice the bumps.
