We used to put rubbing alcohol on it to dry the bump out and stop the itch. Sounds funny but if you also make an "x" on it with your fingernail (clean) then put the alcohol on it, it soaks in faster. Also benedryl spray (not the pills) works well. Good luck, they can be pretty itchy!

cover the affected area with clear nail polish or nu skin, they will suffocate and die.
