Yesterday , I was on my computer and my neck , my belly and especially my my back started to itch reallly badly since I was wearing a certain t-shirt (it was clean) but it found it on my bedroom floor (yeah I know -.- I'm a teenager I'm v e r y messy but I'm also super clean , so this is not the problem) At first , I thought it was lice , but I wasn't. So I took my shirt off to look on it if there were things that I could identify (the t-shirt was black) so I found these little white oval-circle bugs , it kind of looks like salt or something and it doesn't crawl or anything. They're soft and easy to cut with your nail. I also found them on my skin on the itching spots.! I freaked out!! I tied my hair, I took all my clothes, my sheets and my blanket and I put them in a garbage bag. I took every products that I found ; spay with bleach in it , powder to kill fleas ants and other bugs , windex and concentrated product to kill animals like mice (I know that those products aren't made to kill these 'bugs' but it was 3 am and I couldn't find anything on the internet) so I sprayed the products on my bed , on my carpet (I didn't put the thing to kill animals on my carpet ha ha -.-) on my decorating pillows, on the walls and on my bags, I washed e v e r y t h I n g in my bedroom and my washroom. I pass the dust buster to remove the powder 10h later. My mother doesn't believe me , she removed my things from the plastic bag , she washed my clothes but didn't wash my sheets , blanket etc. and she just put them back on my bed. I tried to convince her , but there's no information on the internet and she blames it on my sunburns and there is not way to convince her (it's not the first time I have sunburns , and it's completely different) My father laughed at me and said that I was crazy.I search on Google , it's not mites , it doesn't jump or fly , they don't look like mini mosquitos, it's not molds , they aren't biting midges. I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS THAT BUT I WANT TO GET RID OF THEM.
P.S: I didn't found any marks except a red spot but it was gone after 3-4 hours.
I hope someone can help me.. xx

An easy way to check and see what you have would be to stop by the store for the glue type mousetraps. Most of them use a dark plastic tray to hold the glue so the contrast should make the things easy to spot. Put them out in places where nothing will get spilled on them, such as under the bed and behind the desk. After 24 hours you should be able to find some specimens.

The early stage of a flea is small and white and oval.

But they do not bite.

I wonder if the parents are right, and it's the small blisters we sometimes get from sunburn, and sunburn does itch...
Especially if these 'bugs' don't move.

Source? How does a larva cause itching?

Catsmine, how does someone get infested with flea larvae without adult fleas obvious? Brought in from outside, and it's just recent?
Also what about sand fleas of various types? (Sunburn, beach?)

I still think it's tiny sunburn blisters because they don't move.

Joy, the op mentions finding them on a shirt and then on the skin.

So I took my shirt off to look on it if there were things that I could identify (the t-shirt was black) so I found these little white oval-circle bugs ,

But couldn't that be dead skin flaking off? (Not siding with the mother per se, but the mother does have this opinion, so it's someone who was there.. )

Joy, you were the one who mentioned fleas. I don't think it is. I think the young lady needs to capture a specimen and examine it closely to find out what it is, as I advised in my first answer.

joypulv · Jul 11, 2013, 11:46 AM

Right. Not at odds with you at all. I don't think it is either.
