Poor Gremilin. Here is an article about care and removal: https://www.petcoach.co/article/first-aid-for-insect-bites-in-pets/ Watch him very closely for any signs of anaphylactic reaction and have him examined immediately if problems arise. Make sure to call your veterinarian as well. Best of luck.
