Paul Standerwick, 36, was looking forward to a break in America, but instead he arrived at his hotel room covered in dozens of itchy, infected bites the size of 50 pence pieces.
He, wife Maribel, sons Frankie, five, and two-year-old Hector had already been hit by a 24-hour delay.
But when their flight finally took off from Heathrow for Boston, Mr Standerwick was attacked repeatedly by the parasites.
