Mosquito Bite - What Do you Use

We are here in NC and Ella has a few mosquito bites. What is the best thing for me to to use on it? I need to get something quick from the pharmacy to use. Your suggestions will be greatly appreciated. TIA!

If it doesn't bother her, I wouldn't put anything on it. If it does, try a dab of hydrocortizone cream. I wouldn't use anything stronger than that.

I make a paste out of baking soda & water and appy on the sting, it removes the stinger. I just did the yesterday to my son!

Thanks! Do you apply it right away? Ella got bit yesterday so I am wondering if it is too late to make the paste and apply it.

If its still swollen then the stinger might still be in? you can try it, cant hurt!
