How Can Insect Bites On The Arms And Shoulders Be Treated?
While i was gardening i kept getting bitten by tiny black bugs that were not easy to get off of me, the bite hurt and unless i actually made contact with them with my nail they remained on me. The result is 15 red bite marks that look a little bit like flea bites. Any idea of what they could be and how to deal with the bites all over my arms and shoulders, they do itch when i get warm
