What Could Itchy Growing Circles While Camping Be?

I have been camping, and I felt a slight sting which got worse and persisted for a few minutes, s, and then developed into 3 perfect circles of red bumps, with nothing in the centre of the circle, but which over 24 hours developed into 3 raised, red, extremely itchy areas, each about 5cm in diameter. what do you think it could be? What should I put on it ?
