Answers:

It would be an expensive visit, even it did turn out to be ringworm and not a mosquito bite. If it's a mosquito bite, it will fade away in a day or so. If it's ringworm, you can treat that yourself at home using an antifungal cream ointment like those used to treat jock itch and athlete's feet. It's the same fungus causing all of them. If that doesn't seem to help, then you can just go see a routine run of the mill general care doctor. Ring worm is a pretty common ailment, nothing so exotic worth paying dermatologist rates for when a GP will do.
