Probably just a bad reaction. If so I'd think it should respond rapidly to treatment...probably in 24 hours.
A few years ago I had a bite on my leg from one of those common translucent house spiders we all have where our walls meet the ceiling...it left a bulls eye and by the time I got to the hospital 5 days later (I had a trip to Canada in between) the skin infection was 9" around and growing really fast.
Freaky stuff.
