There are lots of remedies for insect bites and stings but I’m listing the most common ones below. Sometimes other remedies or potencies are required which might require a consultation with a Homeopath.
I have lots more information and tips showing you how to choose and use Homeopathy with The Complete Homeopathy Guide series of books. You can buy these books on Amazon as follows –

Apis
Apis is one of the top remedies for treating Insect Bites & Stings. Skin shiny red, swollen or puffy. Pain stinging and burning.
Hypericum
Puncture wounds. Nerve-damage type pain. Very painful and sensitive to touch. Smarting.
Ledum
Swelling and inflammation, but not to the degree of Apis. A real sign of Ledum is that the area will be cool to touch, and cold or ice-cold application alleviates the pain. Skin is discoloured for a long time after the event, even if Apis or another remedy was originally used.
Urtica Urens
Itching, blotchy. raised like hives. Feels hot. Made from Stinging Nettle so the sting/bite reacts similarly to nettle sting.
