How do you get rid of bug bites fast?


Question:


Answers:
Treatment depends on the type of reaction. If there is only redness and pain at the site of the bite, application of ice is adequate treatment. Clean the area with soap and water to remove contaminated particles left behind by some insects (such as mosquitoes). These particles may further contaminate the wound if not removed. Refrain from scratching because this may cause the skin to break down and an infection to form.

You may treat itching at the site of the bite with an over-the-counter antihistamine such as diphenhydramine (Benadryl) in cream or pill form. Calamine lotion also helps relieve the itching.

Other Answers:
clean them. try dishwashing liquid.

If you are not allergic to aspirin, I promise this works. Put an aspirin on it, with a band-aid over it to hold it on, then wet the aspirin. It draws the poison out into the aspirin. After about twenty minutes, you can take it off.. although I usually leave mine on for about an hour before i remember to take them off!!
A Benadryl pill, or a generic version of it will stop it from itching so it will heal faster. Works for me.
a small dab of oragell will stop the itching immediatly
apply some kereosene oil,to the skin ,immediately
