Tea tree oil: Tea tree oil and colloidal silver are great natural remedies for infected insect bites. Depending on how badly infected, you can take the colloidal silver internally as well.

Try this but see MD: If it's truly infected, i would suggest you see your md to check. If it's just red and itchy, try Benadryl (diphenhydramine) tablets, ice, calamine lotion, and some topical anesthetic sprays, all otc.
