Yup salt does work. As kids we would get lemon or lime wedges sprinkle salt on them to suck on wipe on lips after eating hot salsa or peppers. Salt or the citric acid by itself does work but not quite as well. I suspect a salt anion interrupts the capsicum affect on pain receptors. Citric acid as well breaks up capsicum oil. High fat dairy products like ice cream work as well and tastes better.

Another thing is saladitos, which is salted fruit. We would stick them in a lemon or lime wedges to suck on.
