It has been four days and we are both still miserable and are seeing new bumps daily.
Any suggestions on what this is and how we should treat?
Thank you.
Thank you
negative. It's not so easy to find their location of the moment. Also, mites in particular are not equal opportunity attackers. Most people in contact with the affected animal will show no or fleeting symptoms while one person, in fact usually female child or adult will show symptoms. And, since the bites very often itch like mad she's told her scratching is the problem.
In any event let me know how your condition proceeded.
And if you are curious(itchy) take a look at veterinary sites for mites. Some medical sites cover zoonotics and/or mites.
