Sounds like a cucumber beetle. You can hand pick them or use a spray like
Neem which is an organic spray. I had a big problem with them earlier and
tried to use Safters Insecticidal soap but it didn't do much so I just kept
picking them. They were also eating my potato leafs. So I patrolled the
garden several times a day and hand picked and I still have a few in there
but I got rid of enough of them by hand so I don't have to spray. I read that
you can have 40% leaf destruction without it interferring with crop
production.

Good luck!
