Types of Bug Bites Treated

Our comprehensive bug bite treatment services cover many bites and stings. Some of the common types we treat include:

  • Insect Bites: From mosquitoes and ants to flies and spiders, insect bites can cause various symptoms, such as redness, swelling, and itching. We provide insect bite treatments to reduce discomfort and speed up recovery.
  • Bed Bug Bites: Bed bugs leave painful, itchy welts on the skin, often appearing in clusters or lines. Our bed bug bite treatments are designed to reduce inflammation and relieve the intense itching they cause. (If bedbugs are a concern, speak to the office on the phone prior to coming in)

Whatever the type of bite, effective treatment is essential for relief and recovery, ensuring you can quickly get back to enjoying your day.

  • Redness and swelling at the bite location.
  • Itching or rash
  • Pain or discomfort
  • In more severe cases, hives or difficulty breathing

If you experience any of these symptoms, especially after a known insect bite, it is crucial to seek treatment.
