There is a pre-dose against malaria which you can take before going to field. There are many mosquito repellents alaos available in the market. But I personally feel, that the more you may your self repell these insects, the more effective their bite become :))... let them bite you and you will get used to it, or after so much of medication you wont have malaria but every bite will cause blisters....
