| Tea Tree Oil. Can be applied directly. Takes out the itch and aids in healing. |

| Baking soda, meat tenderizer, aloe, ACV, tea tree oil and a salt paste all can do in a pinch. |

| Calomine lotion, baking soda (would be good in a bath - very soothing) |

Hi, Candy8865, thanks so much for your reply.
May I ask? Does tea tree oil helps in fading the insect bite marks too? If no, what can be suggested for this purpose? |

Hello, AnnieR, thank you for your post.
I did try on aloe before but it did nothing for me.
May I know what is "meat tenderizer"?
Those you suggested are things to reduce the itching, right? Do they help in fading bite marks too? |

Hi, Chimera, thanks for your reply.
Do you mean put before bathing? And then, wash away during the bath?
May I know where could I purchase Calomine lotion? |

| Calomine lotion should be carried by any drugstore. As far as the baking soda...I would put it IN the bath and soak in it. |
