Lemongrass oil works wonders for me, that and like others have mentioned plenty of water. I don't use Gatorade or similar products because it is sweetened with corn syrup (I have cut that out of my diet almost entirely), instead I drink lots of just water and eat nutritious food. I know this is more of a long term fix, but in the short term drink more water and use lemongrass oil.

Wait a minute...I'm confused. I have shot my Dad's Marlin bolt action rifle. It has a tube magazine and it shoots .22's. The rounds I loaded into that Marlin had pointed bullets. Tez, can you further explain this reply?

Oh, yeah. Thank you. I forgot about centerfire vs. rim fire. Now I'm embarrassed.

Thats why I said "most"... In addition to the Lever-lution ammo, Ive seen pointed .30-30 bullets used in single shot guns and the rim of the Label has a small groove for the point to ride in..

I don't know what I got bit by but the bite is now a purple bump and the skin is dying and peeling off. There are just a lot of wolf spiders around. And I thought I saw one the other day.
