Q: Identify This Bite Please

3 Bites, one on hand, 2 on ear. Red, swollen in both areas.

All 3 bites look like a whithead surrounded by red, swollen skin.

What is this insect? Should I take 6 year old boy to doctor?

Cannot find pictures on the internet.

THANKS

bites forms lines and spots
for the past 2 weeks I have experienced bite marks all over my body. legs are the worst. It is like a quick sting and the next minute I have multiple lines running next to each other together with multiple red spots. All are red and swollen and itchy. What is the cause of this? What do I need to look for? What is it that bites me.
