I think i have some type of insect bites on my toes, i don't know what bit me though?

Doesn't matter...: ...What bit you. Insect bites are insect bites; they are all treated the same way, usually with corticosteroid creams, plus an antibiotic if an infection should develop. Check your shoes, though, to make sure no insects have taken refuge inside them.
