Is there a way to get rid of bed bug bites and decrease the itchiness?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Itch: Clean all clothes. You practically have to throw everything in the trash because the bed bugs are small and in the fiber strands of cloth. Medically treating skin rashes is usually not needed. The importance is cleaning the house thoroughly. For itch use Benadryl (diphenhydramine) or a low dose over the counter cortisol lotion
