Call.
An.

Duh!

Spiders don’t bite like that anyway. It’s something else.

That’s what bug bombs and exterminators are for.

So, why doesn't he fumigate the place?

It sounds as if he would rather be in pain than pay for fumigation.

It is a very venomous spider. The bites probably have an enzyme based poison which makes the small wounds grow large.

Probably council housing, the landlord is the government. Good luck getting help...
