Is Neither An Option?

I'm trying to figure out where the three extremely itchy bites I have on my back came from.

Logic tells me that it's too late in the year for mosquitoes (which would be my first choice) so that leaves... fleas or spiders.

I think I'd rather it was flea bites, but then I have to figure out where the fleas came from and I shudder to think that it might be in my bed.

But to me, that's a far better thought than maybe having spider bites.

So.... fleas it is?

Updated to add: I may have to delete this post... it's got me seriously creeped out!

i randomly get mystery bites....i say don't fret and just apply alcohol and neosporin! the reason i say don't fret is because the second i start thinking about what bit me, i'm usually in a full panic 2 minutes later worried that i might have hours to live from some rare cousin of the tsetse fly....but that's just me...hope the itching stops!

If the 3 bites are in a row, it's bed bugs. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And it will continue.

Otherwise, I'd say it's a spider bite. You did just move back into your place after reno's..... things have been stirred up and you're sleeping there....

Good luck xo

Not bed bugs, not bed bugs, NOT BED BUGS.

There... now that we solved that, I'll move on to the more serious comment: Yes Dominic, that's probably totally what it is!

Oh, and Jules, that's probably good advice. Not fretting also makes them itch less ;)

Seriously, you should get your place checked for bed bugs. The earlier you catch them the better.

If it's bed bugs, it's a real pain. You need to wash everything in sight, bag everything in garbage bags and get the place treated.
But it's not that. It's definitely spider bites. Do not panic.

Oh, yeah, spider bites Datea... spider all the way. Yup.
