I use some cheap off-brand anti-itch stuff from Wal-Mart when I get it. Although according to certain people, Windex works wonders. I don’t know if it does but thats what I’ve heard. If anyone decides to try it then please let me know.

As for aloe vera, you can either buy it in like a green gel form from almost any store.
You could also buy a plant of it (it kind of looks like a cactus) from a garden store and use the juice from the leaves.

Oh, and I’ve heard vodka can work, but why waste vodka?

Dip the affected area in hot water. As hot as you can stand without scalding. It will itch like mad while its in the water, but don’t scratch or rub it. After about 30 seconds in the hot water, air dry. The relief at that point is instant.
If the area is not ’dippable’, use a washcloth soaked with hot water, and lay it on the rash (Don’t rub) for thirty seconds, then air dry.
This works with just about any kind of itchy rash.

LuLz... Go find a mosquito. Or some poison ivy. Or maybe gonorrhea (haven’t tested that one yet, but if you do, let me know how it works out :-D !).
