    Just wait 'em out.

    That anti-itch roll-on stuff works for the itch but once it starts to itch the chigger is already gone.

      Bleach bath or clear nail polish on the bites to kill them.

      The bleach bath helped me out, but still sucks.

            Good lord no. Do not put bleach on your skin.

Been doing this for over 50yrs and works every time! My Granddaughter refused to bath in this till she couldn't stand the itching anymore! Now is a true believer!!
              You want to know why this worked? Pure hot water will kill the itch for a while. Works for poison ivy too.

                You are killing nothing. The chiggers bite you, they don't attach, they don't bore into your skin.

                Hot hot water. As hot as you can stand without physically burning your skin. Then use OTC anti itch products.

                  Plain old rubbing alcohol will help also. It drys the bites, and relieves the itching.

                    Read on hear about a "cure" for the itch last year, tried it, and it works for me---Cool Mint Listerine. Scratch it raw, apply Listerine, repeat next day and done.

                      I’ve been doing it for years and all it’s ever caused is awesomeness!

                        I used Persagel a few weeks ago. Something my wife uses for when she gets acne. Dried the bite out and stopped the itch pretty good

                          I got into a bunch of them on Monday, The ranch foreman said they always just wiped on straight white vinegar from the time he was a kid. Tried it and it worked good for me.

                            Treat your clothes with this and you won't have a problem with tics or red bugs.

                              Thank You Dr Adam, but my wife would argue that! She used to take hot baths every night, but never got rid of the itch wo putting something in it!

                                Scratch till it bleeds. Then douse with rubbing alcohol. The burn will make you forget the itch.
