Benadryl cream would be your best bet. Probably won't find the name brand anywhere though, so just any stores generic "Anti-itch" cream.

I just bite the bug back. I have a little itchy bump I can ignore. They're cleaved in half by my teeth. I win.

Soak your feet in urine.

Scratch them until they bleed and then they'll stop itching for a while. If you're lucky the scab can be scratched off for blood up to 5 times.

+1. ...and repped. Sometimes if it itches a bunch I will stick my fingernail into it and make indentations into the skin. It stops itching for awhile.I Wear Pants;884002 wrote:I'm just not a bitch about it.

I like to douse the foot in gasoline first. Lessens the itch before the flame hits it.Heretic;884128 wrote:Or get a lighter and burn the itch away.
Vagisil might also work.

Captain Hindsight is always correct. Applying bug spray before going outside would've worked also.ManO'War;884263 wrote:Next time wear some real shoes.

Turns out one was a hornet sting and that was why the burning was so bad. I had a mild allergic reaction so I had to get a shot tonight.

Once was bitten by about 500 fire ants and literally pissed myself, when it ran down my leg and soaked my feet the pain was gone. This may have been because of the embarrassment that it happened while accepting my diploma at my college graduation ceremony.outdoorsman;884123 wrote:He speaks from experience.
