Had to go research this thing, and the answer
to what to do if it stings you is scream.
from Wikipedia-
"One researcher described the pain a
immediate, excruciating, unrelenting pain
that simply shuts down one's ability to do
anything, except scream. Mental discipline
simply does not work in these situations.
In terms of scale, the wasp's sting is rated
near the top of the Schmidt sting pain index,
second only to that of the bullet ant, and is
described by Schmidt as "blinding, fierce [and]
shockingly electric"."

Let's back up a second and fully appreciate
that description
The Schmidt sting pain index, a widely
used classification system for the bites and
stings of ants, bees and wasps, is literally
the personal ranking system of a guy named
Justin Schmidt, who goes around letting bugs
sting him for science. Like, that's this Thing as
a scientist
In one entry, he describes the sting of the
common bee as "almost pleasant, [likel a
lover just bit your earlobe a little too hard.
In another, the sting of the yellowjacket
is described as "hot and smoky, almost
irreverent. Imagine W. C. Fields extinguishing
a cigar on your tongue."
So when the Schmidt sting pain index
characterises the sting of the tarantula hawk
as "blinding, fierce [and] shockingly electric"
well, now you know what your standard for
comparison is!
