Flies (and fleas) bite. Bees and wasps sting. The flies that bite include deer flies, horse flies, midges, and others.
The best way to kill a horsefly when it lands on you is to watch and wait. When it first lands, it watches to see if you are going to swat at it. If you don't, it will put its head down to bite and draw blood. As soon as it moves its head, its focus is on your skin, and you can kill it much more easily.
Bumble bees are bees. If they sting, it is a bee sting. Robber flies can bite humans. It is not similar to a bee sting.

No, crane flies (from the Tipulidae family) do not bite. While crane flies resemble large mosquitoes, the adults have non-piercing mouthparts (unlike mosquitoes) and only feed on nectar or not at all.However, there are insects that very much resemble mosquitoes and crane flies that can bite or sting. The Ichneumon Wasp is one such insect and is said to be capable of inflicting a painful sting if it feels threatened.

Wasps don't usually bite, they sting. Wasp is some cases can bite and sting at the same time.
