Dudley,
I would stick to the article's advice and dry off as soon as possible. I would also suggest using some rubbing alcohol or strong shampoo as soon as you get out of the water. Using a roach, termite, bug killer spray may not be safe.
You may want to check out the bad news on this stuff on the internet. Here is a sample quote.
"The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has classified permethrin as a carcinogen because it causes lung tumors . It causes chromosome aberrations in human cells..."
Hope the cure is not worse than the itch.
Regards,
Dennis
