Kelley Higney of Bug Bite Thing (Shark Tank Update)


Listen Later

Since creating Bug Bite Thing in 2017, Kelley has been a "Mom on a Mission" to offer the most effective chemical-free solution for insect bite relief worldwide.

In 2013, Kelley Higney moved from California to Florida, only to discover the horror of living with mosquitoes. Her daughter suffered from constant mosquito bites. After many failed attempts using creams and trying home remedies, Kelley discovered a little-known tool that uses suction to help remove insect saliva/venom from under the skin. Kelley was amazed to find that the product worked and also offered instant relief.

The company gained nationwide recognition in October 2019 when Kelley and her mother appeared on ABC’s hit show, ‘Shark Tank. Bug Bite Thing is Amazon’s #1 selling product for insect bite relief with over 40,000 reviews. Kelley is a member of the Fast Company Executive Board and Forbes Business Council. She has received several awards, including ‘Female Entrepreneur of the Year’ by the 2021 Stevie Awards for Women in Business 2021. She resides in South Florida with her husband, Richard, and their daughters, Leah and Lilly.
