Using bleach on a cold sore is a NO NO, that will only make things worse not only that the bleach could damage your skin.

All you need is some over the counter cold sore cream, some of them are inexpesive.

Bleach can kill herpes but so can soap and water. Once you have herpes you will have it for life. You can control symptoms and shedding by taking an anti viral such as Valtrex.
