Dear all

My wife is extremely susceptible to mosquito bites. Her arms and legs and lower back are covered with them; they are red and very itchy. She scratches them, and then they become pustular. Meanwhile, myself and our baby son are more or less unaffected. Apis 30, taken occasionally when the itching is particularly bad, helps a bit. Ledum (externally) makes the itching worse. The mats you use in electric things don't help, nor does citronella. A three day course of Staphisagria 30 doesn't seem to have had any effect. Any thoughts on how to treat the bites, or more usefully how to prevent them, would be much appreciated. Thank you.
