How agonizing are mosquito bites on the bottom of your foot?

When you have a bite or an itch, which do you say: "I need to itch it" or "I need to scratch it"? I've used the latter all my life, but when I got to college I heard many people use the first. A bite itches, so you scratch it. Right?

ETA: For the second question, I know I'm right, I was more interested in seeing what more people say. :) Perhaps it's a regional thing - a lot of my friends from the Midwest use the first. Can anyone confirm or are my friends just stupid?
