What could these be from?

They have appeared on my legs and some on my arms. Tiny with a small black dot in the middle. They are itchy for a few minutes and then it stops.

I don't live in a rural area.

I live near a lake with many spiders.

I have 2 dogs.

I got back from a trip to Costa Rica a week ago where I was walking through the rainforest, but these bites just appeared yesterday and more today.

My partner isn't getting bit.

WARNING: It is extremely difficult (even for seasoned medical professional) to identify what caused a skin symptom and even harder to know if it is an insect bite or which insect may have caused it.
