Time and time again, the best healing wounds proves to be petroleum jelly. It has even been studied against one of the leading scar treatment and was as good or better.  If you have brown discoloration from the bites then this is something that will likely fade of a period of 6 to 9 months or can be speeded up with prescription strength medications such as hydroquinone available through your dermatologist.
