I didn't have any idea how deep they went, but it is good to know that the hive is not deep. I'm glad that you found a solution.

I wondered about the bites and how badly they affected you. I have only been stung by a wasp once and didn't have too much reaction except for pain, and a bumblebee one time that swelled up pretty bad. So far, I've been lucky. I hope that the antihistamines help, and if it stays swelled, get some medical help. But I bet that your body will deal with it.
