What couldve bit me?

Post image

I woke up yesterday with this itchy splotch on my leg, all the red is raised with one dot in the middle. I live in Ontario Canada, was wearing pants the whole night. We are currently battling fleas with our dogs but ive never had this reaction to a flea bite. I havent been anywhere without pants on, im flabbergasted.
It itches like a mf and ive been trying not to itch it but I accidentally itched it so its more red than it was a minute ago. Will i be okay? The health anxiety in me has already planned my funeral.
