I have no idea how to treat mosquito bites, and I wonder if After-Bite, an ammonia solution, isn't harmful to puppies.

There are so many contradictory "mosquito remedies" online that I don't know what to believe.

Baking soda, vinegar (?), and/or some ice might be a natural remedy? Some sources say tea tree or lavender oil.

Supposedly, if the puppy is carrying heart worm larvae, the mosquito might incubate the larvae and later transmit infectious parasites into the puppy.

It sounds like HIV activating into the AIDS virus, but what makes the larvae mature in the mosquito carrying blood?

Can a dog get heartworm from drinking water with mosquito larvae?

No. Heartworms come from adult mosquitoes through the BITE. Baby heartworms are injected with the mosquito bite and migrate to the heart through the blood system. So, while ingesting water with mosquito larvae in it will not give your dog heartworms, if they are allowed to grow up into adult mosquitoes, the adults may bite your dog and give it heartworms.
