It depends upon what type of insect has bitten u
Swelling and itching could be allergic reaction to the bite .
But if u are getting fever we might have to investigate.
You can try taking dolo 650 today for fever.
And clean the bite area properly with soap
If the fever still persists then kindly consult
Take care

Clean the area with spirit and Betadine. Take a tablet of Paracetamol and one Tab Cetrizine. It will be all right.
