Hi i appreciate your concern Flea or spider bite produces release of lots of inflammatory mediators that leads to swelling redness and pain at the site since you had pressed it so you aggregated the injury and infection could have set in in such a case I would advise you take antibiotic ointment to be applied locally with tab cetirizine to reduce itching and acetaminophen for pain relief Hope this helps you good luck take care
