Seriously... I know it sounds nuts but I was in a junk yard yesterday... and was getting bit by these black and gray misquitos... I have 34 misquito bits on my legs and 2 on my arms... do you think I should go to the dr to get checked for anything? Like west nile?

Depending where you live, you should go see the doctor if you suspect that west nile is a serious problem in your area. I believe it wasn't active that much this year.
In the meantime -a good antihistamine, calamine lotion or after bite can help sooth the bites.
If you don't have any of the above, windex with ammonia spray on the bites really helps them go away.
Wish you luck.

I'm almost sure you meant BITES.
It's too soon to go to the Dr.
You need to let whatever they infected you with incubate just a little.

Only go to the doctor if you get flu-like symptoms. For now, use aloe lotion and try not to irritate them by scratching.
