rubbing = isopropyl? I've got a gallon of it sitting around for biodiesel titrations, will give that a try next time..

DEET works well. I have dropped a chunk of dry ice in an an empty five gallon bucket and found thousands of them dead in an hour or so.
I take a shot of vodka every few minutes until I don't care about the itching
