Mysterious bites, any advice please(with photos)

Hi,

So over the last few months this has been going on, I’m really at my wits end. So I will get bites mainly on my legs, rarely I’ve maybe had one on my stomach or arms. They are sometimes in random places, sometimes in a triangle or lines.
Sounds like an infestation, I know.
Dog has been to the vet, couldn’t see anything. Had multiple pest control opinions and house sprayed, still had the bites, partner gets them very rarely, I’m prone to bites/sensitive skin. It only happens in the bed, I’ve checked the mattress and so has pest control, couldn’t see anything or any evidence of a bug. I’ve tried so many sprays and flea bombs, I’ve spent a fortune.
I hoover the entire bed frame and mattress often and treat it, nothing seems to working. The pest control guy made it out that I’m kind of imagining all of this, I’m not sure if maybe a mite…
has anyone got any advice please?? Thanks
its so embarrassing, I don’t want to wear skirts or shorts cause of it

No idea op but I’m having the same problem as you! I’ve been getting them for a few months. They itch like crazy for days then disappear only for more to pop up in other random places. Mine are currently on my stomach after having moved from my arms then to my legs.

dog definitely doesn’t have fleas and the bed definitely doesn’t have bugs.

I’ve been applying bite and sting relief to no avail and also taking antihistamines! what could they be???

It’s crazy isn’t it, I know how you feel!! Like an endless circle of using antihistamines and ointments, might have to try insect repellent next. I’m honestly wondering if it’s a reaction to some kind of mite for us?
