A woman and boy are recovering after suffering bites and puncture wounds after being attacked by a dingo on Queensland's Fraser Island.

Ambulance paramedics treated the 24-year-old woman and nine-year-old boy for arm and leg injuries after they were bitten at Eurong, on the island's eastern side, on Thursday afternoon.

The pair were later flown to Sunshine Coast University Hospital in a stable condition.

The attack comes only weeks after a dingo attacked and bit a six-year-old boy multiple times south of Eurong on the island.
