bug spray for kids

Is there any bug spray that is okay for babies/kids?  Our backyard is quite mosquito-y but is there anything I can put on Millie so she doesn't get bit?

    Ive also heard that the regular Skin So Soft from Avon works well. My neighbor sells Avon and gave me a huge bottle to try. Also, I read some article that my mom sent me that said if you spray Listerine, the mouth wash, around your yard, it is supposed to keep the mosquitoes away, not sure if it works as I have yet to try it but it could work. It was on one of those lists of household items with more than one use.

    We use either Burt's Bees, Cutter Family and then these little citronella wipes that I got at New Baby Products.

    We just use the deet kid products in off and cutter brands. our pedi told us it was well tested and he used it on his kids, so we were good with that.  I know some moms who want to avoid Deet and use California Baby she says you just have to re-aplly it more often than the deet kind but it works for her.  If you are trying to avoid Deet, just try whatever brands you can get and see what works for you.
