3 Ways to Remove Cactus Needles - wikiHow
Unfortunately there are no methods that are 100%. Keeping the area clean is important. If you can get help from a very patient person, that is your best bet.
If you really can't see them anymore, even against a black piece of paper or cloth, try encasing your skin in melted wax for a day or two.
Take Benedryl, Tylenol, and ibuprofin.

Yes, it works better than duct tape when you rip it off.
Elmer's glue to soften and then tweezing slowly for hours works best though.
