Hola,

If something grosses you out as in disgusts you: Use the verbs Eddy mentioned or the verb "repugnar".

If you mean the eebie geebies, as in gives you goosebumps you can say, "me hace erizar", or, "me hace poner los pelos de punta", literally, it makes my hair stand straight up.

Hope this helps.
