I just need some advice, we've had small black bugs outside that jump, but don't fly the past week. We ain't sure what they are or if it's the weather? We've been bitten a few times and not sure if that's the bugs? Every time I or my dog goes outside they are attached to my trousers or socks and his fur. It seems to happen when we go in the garden.
I couldn't see any bugs when I came downstairs this morning, nothing in the water dishes. I let the dog outside and he brought some in and I've seen some on my socks. I can't find any nests anywhere. They just appear out of nowhere, if it wasn't for the house being clean and my dog being white it would be hard to notice these. Would you know what they are or how to deal with them?

From what I can tell from your photo the bug looks like a no see um bug that bits and the bites really hurt. The can swell up and get water under the skin. Here is a photo of the bug and I think this is the bug in your yard. bugguide.net/
This bug, is in the fly family, that bites,( No see um ) fly. Painful itchy bites - here is some history -en.wikipedia.org/
These look like snow fleas which are in the sprigtail family. They don't bite though. Web me has a service where they show bites.
It looks like a flea.
You will need a white cloth and water.
Are the bites round, pink, and raised? Could be fleas
Only slightly raised, going down but just a red circle now
