- 1). Clean the area that was bitten with soapy water.
- 2). Rub aloe on the affected area, or apply a lotion that includes aloe in its ingredients. The aloe is a soothing agent that helps alleviate the itching sensation.
- 3). Apply calamine lotion to the bite. The lotion is a common remedy for itchy skin, and can provide temporary relief from the itching sensation.
- 4). Peel a banana and rub the inside of the peel against the bitten area.
- 5). Mix baking soda and water in the mixing bowl to create a paste. The paste should be thick enough to remain on the bitten area without being runny. If your mixture is too runny, add more baking soda. Apply the paste to the bitten area for 15 to 20 minutes, and wash off with running water.
