I too use amonia. (Must be a Tennessee thang!) ;>)  My wife bought me a
product called After Bite - The Itch Eraser.  It is basically a tube with
a plastic applicator tip haveing a small hole in the center.  Just
shake-up, apply, & stop itching!  The active ingredient....ammonia.  One
could refill the container with *much* cheaper store-bought ammonia when
dry.  The sting site will contain a small zit/pimple-like bump after a
few hours.  The pain does indeed become less noticable the more you get
stung, but this is a great bridge until you get there!
