Takes time: Random bug/insect bites take time to heal. The local area was damaged and the body will repair it but it won't happen overnight. The best thing you can do for it is leave it alone. If the skin is open then keeping topical antibiotics on it in attempt to prevent a secondary infection. Try not to scratch. If it becomes red and painful then it needs to be evaluated for secondary infection.
