Only got bitten once, but I did frequently spray jungle formula on myself as there were thousands of mossies. Used hydrocortisone cream on bite and took antihistamine. Note to self - take citronella candles next year

Yes we all got bitten too some worse than others, my friend ended up at the first aid as she had bad reaction, and I had some bites but one in particular on my side swelled up and was so itchy but went down after a couple of days, all ok now tho

Mine keep flaring back up they are huge ! usually bites itch for a day or two then go but these keep coming back like they are fresh ones !! its very strange :?

[melons]

The pharmacist gave me antihistamines and hydrocortisone cream when I had this problem recently. Cost me about 4 pounds and did the trick in about 24 hours.
