Answer 3

It depends on how infected the bites are, it would be best to have a doctor take a look at them. In the meantime, wash them in antibacterial soap, and then apply some triple antibiotic ointment (like neosporin) and then put a band aide on. Keep the wounds clean and covered until they heal up.
