Thanks for using HCM, I understand your concern and will try to give you my medical advice, Is really difficult to identify what kind a bug bit you because there are different species, but probably was the most frequent in your area. I think using the steroid cream is a good idea because that can help you to relieve the symptoms, when the bug bit you inoculated toxins through the skin and your body needs some time (2-3 weeks) to absorb the inflammatory fluids, just avoid some infection with a good hygiene and you will be fine, I hope that my advice has been helpful,take care
