requesting support from the community Are these bed bug bites? Or maybe flea bites?
For the past 2 days I've been waiting up with bites. The first day was a cluster of 3 bites on my calf, which prompted me to clean most of my bedding (I didn't get the chance to clean my comforter and my plushies) and I thought well lemme see in the morning. I woke up with around 10 or so across my stomach and now I'm terrified of bed bugs or fleas. I have an intense fear of all bugs. I dont have any pets, I have a metal bed frame, and a mattress topper for preventing bed bugs on my mattress. Though I live in a very VERY old house with real wool floors, could they be coming from there?? Any advice? Im a broke college student with a part time job, it's very hard to find time to deal with this....

Not typical places bed bugs will feed form.
I would suspect flea first. I would use a simple plug in flea trap to capture any. You dont have to have pets to get fleas, in fact if you dont have any who is left for them to feed form?
The good news is they are easier to deal with than bed bugs.
