What Should Be Done As Bitten And Had Itchy Bumps An Feet And Legs?

My boyfriend has been bitten by something that left lots of bumps all over his feet and legs. They have a red ring around them with a white circle in the middle but it is not pus. He says it itches really bad way worse than any bite he has ever experienced. What could have done this and what should he do?
