I think the only immediate remedy is soap and water. Assuming you did that I wonder if you’ve had sunshine in your area and the spot on made you photosensitive.

Relevant bit from the data sheet attached. As long as it doesn't get worse leave it alone. Some antihistamines will help if the itching is compulsive.
If it gets worse or you feel ill. Ring a doc. You only get one go.
