Yes that is completely normal for a mosquito bite but don't scratch it too much, this could cause infintigo. Putting clear finger nail polish over the bite and using itch creams is what my mother always did. They will go away in a few days usually, if they are left alone!

I found that taking oral Benadryl and applying Benadryl cream controlled the itching and swelling for my family.
Usually the bites will stop bothering us after 12 hours for the smaller sized bites and up to 48 hours for the larger ones you're speaking of.
Good luck to you, I know the itching is very annoying and uncomfortable.
