We've been using a babyganics bug spray for our 2 year old but he's still being eaten alive by mosquitos
any suggestions for a better bug spray?

Oh man. We just took E to the pediatrician yesterday for infected bug bites. She said to use Skintastic/Off. Sure enough, I bought some and sprayed E and her clothes yesterday before an outdoor picnic, let her run wild and free in the grass, and NO BITES!

@blackbird: just like the family care version? what did she say about the infected bug bites? I used a little breastmilk on his, which aren't infected, but they still look terrible

We've been happy with the California Baby Bug spray. Not cheap but all natural/safe and still effective.

@Applesandbananas: yep. I bought the Non scented. It does have some deet but honestly, the natural ones aren't working for her. I've used that Honest bug spray and she and I still get eaten up. And she's not a baby who's licking the spray off or anything. She's on antibiotics for the infection, though. She gets a bath every evening so I know it's off her
I also have some stuff with picaridin for the gnats and that keeps them off me.

Bubble and bee organic? We don't have a ton of bugs, so I don't know if it works in crazy bug areas, but it has worked well for us and smells good.

This stuff is made not far from me and everyone around here swears by it. I had it on last night and the Mosquitos were crazy but I didn't get any bites. It smells great and is safe. We love it. https://www.simplysoothing.net/bug-soother/

We've had wonderful luck with the California Baby version. It smells nice and doesn't leave you sticky. I use it as well !
