Question
Hi there, I am in a big dilemma. I've got rashes and allergies  all over my body..and recently, i found out that it was a little black bug, the size of an ant..which jumps from one spot to another. I saw it stinging me, and it's so itchy right there.. the allergies have propagated all throughout my body..I just want to know which bug it is, I want to find out more about it, and if possible, give me some practical homey solutions to take care of the allergies..
thanks,
Emma.  

Answer
Hi Emma;
Could the bugs be fleas?
I found these sites with pictures of insects, and there seems to be a lot of types.
Go in there and look for a picture of the one that is biting you.

The last one is pictures of insect bites. That might help you identify your bites.
For allergies that itch, I take Benadryl.
It stops the itching for several hours.
It could be that you are more sensitive to their bite than most people.
Splitting the leaf of an aloe plant and rubbing the juice on the bites will help some, but anti-itch creams and other topical treatments does not stop the itching for me, and you can scratch them in your sleep, and break the skin with your neail, and really cause more problems for yourself.
If you can identify the insect, I can find you an effective organic solution to getting rid of them.
