    Is there immunotherapy for mosquito bite allergy?

    After being bitten by mosquitoes, my skin become very inflamed an itchy the next day. The areas develop into 10cm or bigger lumps with vesicles at the points of stings. Calamine and intraoral antihistamine have no effect on the itchiness. I had to resort to antihistamine injections for temporary relief. The itchiness and swelling remain for about 2 months and the affected areas don't fade until about 6 months later. I have attended many GPs and rang many allergists, none have immunotherapy for mosquito allergy. However, as I googled the internet, there has been immunotherapy for this around for over 10 years. Please tell me where I could get this treatment in Sydney, Australia.
