They secrete a liquid that is used to break down fruit prior to consuming it. It is possible you were allergic to that liquid. If you want to get rid of them, make sure you don't leave any fruit lying around anywhere in the open. No, fruit flies don’t bite.

I found 2 of them and as I swatted them off my wrist I was left with 2 welts of hives and had to use caladryl lotion to stop the sting & itch. Frist I thought they could have been fleas but they were fruit flies as I had some fruit on the t.v. cabinet stand like bananas and a couple of applies so then I realized they had to be fruit flies and not fleas. Needless to say I removed the fruit from my room and put the apples in the fridge and the bananas on the kitchen counter. Can these fruit flies bite?

Beliving them to be unhazardous, I'm afraid I ate it anyway.
