Sorry this happened! Looks like she is gonna be trying to heal this up for quite a while.
I had a spider bite in almost that same spot. Thought it was a skeeter bite at first, but it just kept getting bigger and redder and hotter to the touch. Went to the Dr., he said he thought it was a brown recluse bite and gave me antibiotics. It cleared right up. But mine never opened up like that picture, and I didn't have any flesh die off, so I think it was something else that bit me. I have heard of people losing limbs and even their lives by not seeking treatment soon enough from a brown recluse bite.
