Which OTC Medicine Can Be Used To Cure Ground Itch On Foot?

Hello my son has ground itch on his foot however he does not have insurance to afford to get the proper medication that would be needed to clear it up. I would like to know is there a freeze spray we could by over the counter to get rid of it.
Or another home remedy
