Re: bug repellant. I've got a sensitive skin myself, so I try to avoid these if possible.

If you plan on going into the tent and getting to sleep after you shower, you won't need any repellants. It is easy to declare your tent a bug-free zone for the night. You can easily track down and kill the few intrepid skeeters that manage to sneak in with you, and after that the tent structure keeps the rest out.
