Try PreparationH for the bites. Strong anti-inflammatory!
Good luck.
Epson salts good too.

Hey guys make a bath with epson salts an sea salt soak the bites for 10 minutes , itching will be gone and if you repeat the treatment the bites will heal faster.
to avoid the bites soak your clothes in Permitrin , no more chiggers or any other bug.!!!!

I had a severe case of them 4 years ago. I will never go in the woods before the first frost without permanone again. They can make you go insane.
