I had chicken pox TWICE when I was little. The first time was just mild when I was a baby, and then my older brother got them and my parents weren't worried about me because they thought I'd be immune, but nope I got it full blown again when I was 5! My mom swore by bathing with baking soda. You can also just mix a glass of baking soda with water and sponge it on, so that it dries on the skin. It soothes the itching.
