    If you’ve got several all over, I use an antihistamine like Benadryl or even Allegra. The itchiness is an allergic reaction and the antihistamine helps to calm your immune system down.

      I vouch for this. I found a video years ago showing a benadryl pill being crushed in a small bowl and just enough water added to make a paste, then spread over the bite. Works well with the nagging mosquito bites!

      Hydrocortisone, for whatever reason, hasn’t helped me with this.
