Ringworm is a fungal infection. I've never heard of it being caused by insect bites. It is usually caused by contact with an infected person or pet.
It looks like either a brown recluse bite or tick bite to me. Ticks are pretty bad here this year because we had a mild winter so I would lean towards a tick bite. The poster who said that a lot of doctors don't recognize Lyme Disease is right. You may want to find one who specializes in Lyme Disease and have them take a look at it. Maybe it is just an infected tick bite.
How is it looking BTW? Better I hope.
