ELPH360HS New Camera has white spots all over photos taken at night

[averymjoyce]

Hi, I just received my brand new ELPH360HS camera from canon and it seemed to be working great until I used it at night time.  When I took photos with the flash, they came out with white spots all over the photo, making it look like it was snowing.  I wiped the lens several times and inspected it but saw nothing directly on it.  I will attach one of the photos below. If anyone knows why this is happening or how I could fix this I would really appreciate it, as i dont want to have to return the camera.

Thanks

Try it without the flash. It looks like you are just getting reflections from dust motes in the air.
