Another home remedy is cuban oregano for mosquitos. We have used it for years - you take a leaf and rub it over your skin and mozzie's will stay away. (be careful it will become invasive in many areas!)
I tested it out on Seaside Bob's teenage son - I sprayed him one side with repellant and one side rubbed the leaf on him... they went out into the river areas nea Honomu at night to catch prawns. Only got one bite on his stomach.
other plus is the same day, I also rubbed it on my arm and came in the house and ask SB if he liked my new perfume and he said YAH!! it smells good! I said you big doofus - you like it because it smells like Pizza!! hahahaha
