I just got this a few weeks ago. Tons of Benadryl cream will do the job.

i think i recall that guy who ran the home remedies infomercial during the eighties saying oatmeal was good for poison ivy, no idea if you are meant to consume it or apply it to the infected area? a vacuum will stop a baby crying too.

You have inevitably made me think of Batman and Robin. This means you are to be killed. Or sentenced to swing from George Clooney's codpiece, whatever suits you worse.

It might help to add Baking soda to your bath. Good luck.

Oatmeal baths can work, too. You can use the regualar breakfast stuff, or some druggists will sell you a package of the stuff with bathing instructions.

a vacuum will cure a crying grown-up also!! though they are hard to find (or make) unless you live off-planet

We keep a vacuum in the cupboard. It can be difficult to find under the piles of assorted other rubbish, granted. It helps us clean the house and stops grown-ups from whining.

what you stick them in the cupboard and their heads explode?

― Sam, Thursday, 25 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

That's about it, yes.
