I live in the dorms and over the weekend I got 7 bug bits on my legs. My mom thinks they might be bed bugs so they are going to bring me a new mattress.
What should I do to make sure that these bites do not turn into spots?
Thanks in advance for all of your help.

Hey SCasey...I'm not too sure about bedbugs, but whenever I get mosquito bites, I make a paste with baking soda and water, apply it to the bites,and let it dry. I do that a few times a day. It takes away the itching, dries them out, and they're usually gone in a couple of days...no spots left behind. HTH!
Hugs,
Crys

OKAY, I'm going to try that! Thanks so much, I know it seems shallow but I don't want those spots on my legs.

I was wondering where you were girl! I hope you don't get any more bites either. /forums/images/graemlins/nono.gif

Hey SG. /forums/images/graemlins/wave.gif
I haven't gotten any more bites but they did leave little marks. I am going to use the 10% HQ on them, they should be gone in a few weeks.

Hello GN1G,
How have you been? I got the HQ from greatskin.com (someone here recommended it in a post), it helped me fade the dark areas on my toes.
