 Help my WTF please... he has some weird bumps on his back!!!

Yea I am getting a bit worried. Iwent to a pet store and saw the local vet at the store and he said that he has no idea what it might be unless he did some tests on my tree frog. Well I really love my tree frog and I care for him to the max, but I truely just cant afford to take a frog to the vet. I feel so bad if I am making the wrong choice of what to do... My whites tree frog is fully grown and he is very healthy up untill acouple days ago when I discovered some bumps on his back they are pretty small but big enough to think they might be tumors. I will get pictures up as soon as possible. please help me help him!!!

Please get pics up as soon as possible of your frog and your tank.
How long have you had this frog? Have you made any changes in the tank recently?
What are the temp and humidity in the tank? Is it still eating and going potty?

He is going to the bathroom fine, he is eating fine, but he has gone through a bit of an enclosure change but I saw the bumps before I changed his tank because his other one broke while I was cleaning it... and now he is in a ten gallon tank untill I get a new exo-terra tank. the temps in his tank as of right now is 77 or 78. but its night time. the humidity thing looks like 73 percent. The pics are almost here.

what color are the bumps? are they white... If so they could be mites... I am having the same prob with my leopard geckoes... If they are white they could be the fecal matter of the mites...

Your humidity is a little high.
How was the first tank set up? Most likely it is not mites, they are not usually a problem with frogs.
Please describe how the original tank was set up, decor,plants etc.

His first tank setup was with all fake plants, he had a water bowl that he sat in alot, he had a half log that he would go under and sit on top of, and I used eco earth as a subrstrant. the bumps have no color they are just big brown bumps... the same color of his skin. the bumps are bigger than I thought when I looked at him breifly a lot earlyer. there is like three or four bumps. I clean the tank every two weeks but I replace his water every day. he also has a 45 watt light bulb thats on sometimes when it gets cooler in my house.
