Brief Answer:
steroid cream

Detailed Answer:
Hello
You can apply a strong steroid cream like clibetasol in night and an antibacterial cream like mupirocine in day. Both these are usually available over the counter.
Also take an anti histamine tablet daily for a week.
You will get good relief.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you
