What can you put on a toddler that has fleabites?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Flea bites: Hydrocortisone does a nice job of controlling the itch but may sting a little. Adding maalox can help take the sting out. Calamine, roule, and even mint toothpaste in a pinch can help a well. Oral Benadryl (diphenhydramine) can also help control itch.
