Does Using Triamcinolone And Aquaphor Repels Bed Bugs?

Hi, recently we have discovered that we are infested with bed bugs and everyone is getting bit except for my oldest daughter who is 4 yrs old. She has eczema and uses triamcinolone and aquaphor for her eczema. Is this cream repelling the bugs or is she just not having a reaction to the bed bugs bites.
