I have had the itchiest, most irritating mosquito bites ever in the last couple of days! Usually they don't bother me that much but this time, they are driving me crazy!!!! I remembered reading somewhere that baking soda is soothing so my husband and I came up with this recipe. There was a tiny bit of burn on some bites, but they are the ones that I scratched the most. That feeling was so much better than the itch! This would easily work on chicken pox as well. Enjoy the relief!
