Brief Answer:
Anti-allergic, Avoid further exposure, Skin creams
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank you for your query.
1. Get a prescription for an anti-histamine such as cetrizine or fexofenadine. Get the exact names of the chemicals used for the pest control and consult a local physician.
2. The best way out would be to avoid further exposure and see if the acne/rash subsides. When was this pest control done?
3. An opinion of a Skin Specialist and skin creams will help if the acne/rash persists.
4. All daily use personal items in the house should be adequately protected before the pest control.
Hope I have answered your query. If you have any follow up queries, I will be available to answer them.
Regards.

Im not aware of pest chemicals but it done before 15days.I used Etan-GM by using this infection arise.
Brief Answer:
Check for infection. Avoid further exposure.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank you for writing back.
1. If the acne is increasing in spite of using Etam-GM, it means that you need additional medication or that the steroid content in the cream is flaring up the acne.
2. You may upload close-up images of the acne/rash or show a skin specialist as soon as possible.
3. Pest control chemicals lat for many months hence if you can shift residence for a few days, it will be better, especially since the chemicals are not known and will have contaminated all your daily use articles in the last 15 days, making any attempt to avoid further expose extremely difficult. The best cure for allergy is to avoid further exposure. You may take this step is infection is ruled out and the anti-allergic medication is not helping.
