Default Kinda bowhunting question

Since I did end up with this little affliction during bowhunting.Being the semi-warm weather and there are still bugs out...namely chiggers...once you get a case of them what do you remedy the problem with? Been awhile since I have had the little suckers and forgot the joys wanting to skin myself to get relief!Someone give me some help...fixing to go out and change oil on truck and kinda looking forward to squirming on driveway to scratch my back[:@]

I have never had them, but I would think Calamine lotion would work.

I've tried just about everything, calamine/hydrocortizone/nail polish....etc. Always seem to last a week no matter what.

Well I'm trying the Aveeno bath and benadryl for relief.I just remembered why I don't go to family ranch during summer...we ain't got these critters in the desert! Going to work on truck then soak the outside in aveeno the inside will get soaked in Coors Light,nothing like drunk chiggers!

I take a warm bath and add some vinegar. Chiggers and ticks do not seem to like this and drop off.
