    Give him some benadryl, apply a paste of baking soda and water and allow it to sit on the sting until dry, or mud if you don't have baking soda... The idea of the paste is that as it dries it pulls the poisons out. If swelling continues it could be a severe allergic reaction and you should get him to the doctor.

      Put some ice on it.... And give him some children's tylenol, if you still cant find the exact spot... Try a cool wash cloth on the generalized area.
