Thanks to all for info and suggestions. I'm also in the middle of construction and chaos and have a houseguest, so I'm a bit freaked out at this point to know what I'm going to do. Using Neem oil to repel them from biting us. They much perfer humans; so far Rocky's ok. I'm keeping a close watch on him. Will let you all know what happens in case you have this problems.
