    I've done a lot of research in this area, but will keep it simple... calamine lotion and benedryl cream is your best bet.... or caladryl which is a mixture of the 2.

    If you're already miserable, then treating the itching is the only way to go, as the bugs themselves are already gone.

    Bleach in the bath when you first get in, before the itch. As already said, calamine if it's already itching.

    As with most chigger remedies, this is a myth and due to the lack of understanding of the problem.
