I was bitten by a bug I can't identify...

Question

it looked like an orange colored worm...I have two bite marks so it may have bitten me with both of its ends...after it bit me, which I had a h**l of a time getting it off, I felt tingling all over...in one hundred degree weather I had chill bumps...felt alittle funny...then it passed...now its just ITCHY and there is a little welt...

It definitely wasn't a spider...it was a worm thing...and it was orange...I'm having a hard time finding anything on it...Please help...
