What have you found works best for chigger bites? Usually cortisone not working. Any foods for kids to eat that help?

You can buy something called Chiggerex. It's benzocaine, I think it works better than cortisone. Even so, the welts that last a long time. Chiggers are awful.

Are you sure it's chiggers and not heat rash?
