The following remedies for use are just suggestions by the members of our gardening team, tested and tried from experience. I compile these here with a disclaimer to contact a doctor if your symptoms are of more serious nature.
Apply any one of the following on your skin to keep the bugs away-
Kailash Jeevan - Multipurpose Herbal Ayurvedic Cream
Camphor with Coconut oil
Diluted Apple Cider Vinegar
Crushed Basil leaves
Crushed Citronella leaves
Crushed karpooravalli leaves (also known as Plectranthus amboinicus or mexican mint)
Crushed Ajwain leaves (also known as caraway, bishop's weed, or carom )
Benadryl lotion
Better yet to wear loose fitting full sleeves shirt and pants along with ankle covering garden shoes.
Tucking the ends of pant into the boots will sure keep you safe from the biting critters.
