flea bites

Tiny itchy bumps

Flea bites are the small, itchy red welts left when fleas feed on blood.

They typically appear in clusters on ankles, legs, or wherever skin is exposed.

Figuratively, flea bites are minor annoyances or trivially small amounts: The fine was a flea bite to a corporation that size.
