From your description, the ear lump after a bite is likely inflammation-related growth that fades when inflammation clears. Add antibiotics to drinking water daily and change it often, or wipe the spot with diluted antiseptic like iodine or penicillin.
If the lump does not fade or turns hard, discharges, or worsens, see a vet.
