when they bite and the venom is injected into your skin, the venom is mainly the reason for the itching and pain, this can also cause an allergic reaction

The spider has a venom in their teeth that they inject into your skin when they bite you so you won’t bleed everywhere and your skin has a reaction to the venom because it’s strong enough to have an effect just not strong enough to hurt you.
