Hi

I've had loads of little (1-2mm) itchy spots appear all over my arms, backs of knees and along where my bra lies in front my armpit - they are incredibly itchy and last night I found 3 teeny (pin prick) grey bugs - Dont think its bed bugs as our bed is only 6 mths old & I've searched it thoroughly. On google it comes up with all kinds of awful scary bugs and conditions - the only one I think is similar is body lice????? For the past 3 weeks I've been on placement following a community midwife around and have visited some not so tidy/clean places. I've put my bedding and recent clothing on a 90 degree wash over the past 2 days but I've just found two more bugs!!! Wtf is this and how the hell do I get rid??? We have pets but they are way smaller then fleas and don't jump!!!

Bird mites? You could have a nest in the roof... Sympathies.
