  • Answer:

    There are several easy ways to find the answer to this mystery. First of all on one of the bumps put clear finger nail polish on it. If the itching an irritation goes away soon that means it is chiggers and you need to either go to the doctor or just apply clear finger nail polish on all of these bumps. Next is if they look more like a rash with what looks like hives around them it most likely is fleas and for this take an oatmeal bath and apply calamine or rubbing alcohol to them. Also if it is poison ivy apply calamine on them as well and if it gets worse there is a heavy duty cream you may apply to them and also a bar of soap to help. If none of these solutions work go to our nearest doctor because it may be an allergic reaction. Hope i helped!!

I would guess fleas. I don't think Chiggers would get you that bad so quickly. Poison ivy will instantly show and will hurt a lot. You'll have to act fast to get them off your bedding and your body!

Could be chiggers..But not poison ivy..posion ivy is more spread into blobs not bumps.. and are they into rings?? if so then they could be ring worm from the cats..that itches and looks red with little rings
