#3"These flies are ferocious biters with a seemingly unsationable thirst for blood...The bite is generally painless, but usually results in a small flat red spot that within 12 hours becomes excruciatingly itchy... Scratching No-see-um bites can double the length of time they require to disappear and can lead to infected sores."

I may never go to E (sis-in-law)'s again.
#2"As the larval flea progresses in its development, the tapeworm inside it is also progressing in development. By the time the flea is an adult, the tapeworm is ready to infect a dog or cat...
Inside the host’s stomach, the flea’s body is digested away and the young tapeworm is released. It finds a nice spot to attach and the life cycle begins again. It takes 3 weeks from the time the flea is swallowed to the time tapeworm segments appear on the pet’s rear end or stool." (The Tapeworm Page)

at first sight, I thought those were chigger bites and I was gonna tell u to paint clear nail polish on them....
I gotta get some sleep! ;)
well, they're all over the bottoms of both my feet; apparantly I should have worn shoes last night. It doesn't help that my ankles and feet itch if I stand up too long even without bites...I really need to get some Skin So Soft.
