When I adopted this kitten my brother picked the fleas I was trying to get rid of and put them in my bed as a joke! Now I have flea bites all over me! I have tried cocoa butter,and Burt's Bees, but nothing is helping! Could you tell me what I could use to help me?

Your brother sounds very special!(NOT)!!! First of all wash your bedding really good with hot water and any other article of clothing etc..that has been laying around your room.Tea Tree oil is great for any skin problem that you may have be it a blemish or a bite,you can get it at your local health food store.Bugs do not like it.and its a great "cure all"
Also I used to get bit really bad by mosquitoes at our summer cabin so my mom would start giving me a B vitamin complex 2 weeks before our trip and it was amazing the mosquitoes didn't bite me anymore.(vitamin B6).As for your brother,I have 4 older brothers myself and if I weren't a responsible adult I would give you some great tips,but Iam sure youve got something up your sleeve(I hope)!!

wow, mean brother, lol. Anyway, I don't think anything oil-based such as burts cocoa butter would help much, those are just moisturizers. My first suggestion would be to try a bug-bite cream, they sell than at any pharmacy. Also, You might want to try something like hydrocortizone or perhaps acne cream(benzol-peroxide).

You can also try Aveeno creams I think they have a oatmeal bath that will sooth the itch. Good Luck. You need to get your brother back big time for that.

Obtain a few black widow spiders, and place them in your brother's bed. Imagine the fun you all will have as he learns that he has been bitten.

YOU CAN USE CALAMINE LOTION FROM ANY DRUGSTORE. IT STOPS THE ITCHING AND DRYS IT OUT. HOWEVER, IT WILL LEAVE YOU WITH PINK/WHITE SPOTS ON THAT AREA UNTIL YOU WASH IT OFF.
