Default Swollen tick bite

I have taken ticks of of Callie before but tonight the area where the tick was looks different. The tick was on her leg and I was able to get the hole tick head and all, this tick was small but very full. Then next to where that tick was there was some dried blood in her hair around another little hole the same size hole that the tick I took off left. Her leg around that area is swollen and red. She is not limping and I cleaned the area but I am still worried. If it is the same in the morning and not looking better I plan to call our vet and take her in. She has never had swelling before from a tick bite so I am pretty worried. Also earlier before I found the tick she was panting and has been warm all night when normally she has to have a shirt on at night because she gets cold.
