Well, they are definitely bites. Sometimes the flea treatment doesn't work so well, but it could be othe bites. My dd is reacting much more strongly to bites this year. If it is that, then hayfever tablets every day is doing the trick with dd (much w/e amp going on).

I have two bites on my wrist. No idea how they got there. It's that time of year!

Definitely bites.

What flea stuff do you use? Or have you been sitting on grass where you might have been nipped by something?

They look like the sort of insect bites I get. As I understand it, everyone gets bitten, it's just that people react differently to the bite. Your DD appears to react badly. I do too - I have sympathy for her.

They do look like flea bites. I don't get bitten by anything else so I don't know about other insects.

I deflead all our furries at the start of the month but it must not have taken because I got bitten (they always get me), and there was one on the dog at the vet check Blush.

Redone them all now and hoping that does it.

Wishing your DD a speedy recovery.

They are flea bites, it matters not, if you have flead your pets, have you been walking in long grass, or visiting someone's house ?
