Why do you keep getting bv?

BV is an imbalance of bacteria in the vagina. Since ejaculate is basic and not acidic, having ejaculate in the vagina increases the pH and causes BV. Some women have BV without sexual intercourse, and for some reason the normal vagina flora is disrupted. If you are having sex with different men, that can cause BV as well.

Can bacterial vaginosis cause bites that apppear as insect bites on skin?

BV does not cause bites or a rash. Sometimes BV is associated with trichomoniasis. If you have a rash in the vulvar area, contact your health care provider to find out if you were screened for trich when you were diagnosed with BV. Trich is harder to diagnose and is often missed in women with BV, particularly if they were diagnosed without the health care provider looking under the microscope at the vaginal discharge.
