listen to rob if you want I talked to my doctor about it.gave her all the information about what I was doing for the last 24 years and she said go for it but don't put them on tight or it will cause a bad rash.i would think a doctor would know more about this than rob.he knows it and so do I.sorry rob but this time I got the information from a doctor.

Just an update - I put clear nail polish on each bite (at the advise of someone who seemed to know lots more than I did) and it seems to be working! The itching has gone down lots, and the bites are less inflamed and appear to be starting to fade. IDK, but I was told that the nail polish also kills any eggs that may be in there (ugh....) Since I haven't gotten any new bites, it's really really good news that we don't seem to have brought any of those buggers home with us. By the way, all of your helpful (and uniquely entertaining) comments are much appreciated - really!

I hope your problem is actually sand fleas and not bedbugs. I once got burned at a hotel with bedbugs (thankfully not in Jamaica) that took a couple days for bites to appear. Glad I'm always careful not to bring anything home.

I agree with Frankk, your bites sound a bit suspicious.

An Army PA told me that bedbugs leave 3 bites in an area. They called bedbugs bites the holy trinity. If you don't have 3 bites near one another it prolly isn't bedbugs. I came back one year and they kept appearing. He took one look and said nope, not bedbugs.

Agree with MilwaukeeMike... My experience was many bites with three together in a straight line. Some people are more sensitive to them than others. I still have scars from two months ago.

This can happen in very nice hotels- I always check out the bedbug register websites (http://registry.bedbugs.net/) and Never unpack anything inside my home.

Hope none of you have to deal with these.
