It's funny, he asked if I had ever had poison ivy, and I said, "No, but mosquito bites itch for me days after I get them," and he said it's the exact same phenomenon.

The do itch for a while but I thought by now the itching should have died down a little

Some of us have immune systems that stay on hyper-alert longer than others, which is why we itch long after everyone else has stopped. It can be maddening, but less so when we understand it. I got into the habit of NEVER scratching skin that itches, as that just seems to prolong it!
