Bitch
A "puta" is a whore or prostitute, and the term "puto" is used to insult a male.
Bitch is the closest equivalent in American slang. Watch Oz on HBO or one of those East LA Chicano movies once in a while.

Definitely an insult
I'm curious as to why you would ask that type of question on this type of service - I don't think I'll even dignify that with a translation. Go here if you really want to know:

Some additional meanings in portuguese
This word has in Portuguese the same meaning that in Spanish. But it has some more meanings:
- I heard that in certain regions of Portugal it has a meaning of "kid", and it is not a bad word at all
- In Brasil, it has a lot of additional meanings:
- Scoundrel, without any sexual connotation, but quite rude anyway
- furious, enraged, pissed off: "Ele ficou puto da vida". To be a less - but just a little less - rude, one can say "p" instead of puto
- the expression: "Estou sem um puto" means "I'm broken" or, more litteraly, "I don't have a single penny".
