I have welts, the size of mosquito bites, that are itchy, but they ooze a little bit the size of a pin-prick at the top. I don't think it is bed-bugs, I have also slept in three different beds in my house the past several nights and I have checked the mattresses. I have a small dog, but she does not sleep in our beds. I did the scotch-tape thing and checked her bedding and the blankets that she lies on, No fleas that I can see, but then, I need reading glasses for everything these days. I have no bites on my ankles or legs, as you would expect with cat fleas. Most of the bites are on my torso and neck. I have also been outdoors all weekend. Any educated guesses out there?Thanks for your help!

I just read in the Chicago Trib that there has been a rash of bug bites and park officials are checking for Itch Mites, a common summer pest. Unfortunately, the information came after I had already shaved my dog and turned it into a rat terrier...

 Hi, considering that this is a guessing games as no one would be able to give you a definate answer you should go to the doctor and get it checked out. The doc would prescibe some medication for you.
Take care

 You could have bed bugs. These are very hard to see as they make themselves almost invisibal by day. But night time is when they come out to do their feeding.
Look up a local pest controller, he will come out and survey the area. If there are signs he will spray the infected area and eradicate the pests.
Good luck x

I would go along to the docs. My mum gets bitten by things and they swell up horrendously, the doctor gives her a course of meds to sort it. Some people react differently to others.
