Hi all, Ive been staying at my partners house for nearly 2 weeks and for the past 5 days ive been waking up every morning with bites on my foot/ankle. At first i didn't take much notice but today i woke up early due to my ankle itching badly and i saw a fresh spot, it made me realise it may possibly be bedbugs bugs and im now freaking out.
My partners currently away on a business trip so im the only one who’s been getting bitten…it seems to only happen at night when im sleeping in bed and even though my legs are exposed it’s only on my foot and only 1/2 bites per night. Strangely enough I think it’s the same foot that’s getting bitten never the other one.
As I mentioned I’ve been here for 2 weeks and it wasn’t an issue until 5 days ago so whatever it is must’ve recently been bought into the house. I feel so disgusting and unhygienic…if it is bed bugs is it likely I caught it off someone while out etc as I feel like I need a deep cleanse and I’m anxious to tell my partner in case he thinks I’ve bought them here. There’s cats in the house so
may be fleas however they’re indoor cats and I don’t get bites when touching them it’s just when in bed. I’m now scared to go back home as I’d hate to bring whatever it is back home with me.
Any help with identification from the information I’ve given would be appreciated or even advice as I’m getting very anxious.
