@westwind,
I need[s] your help.

A) let's start from here. B) let's start here.

Is there any difference?

============

There's no appreciable/real difference that I can discern/think of at this time, Westwind.

@westwind,
Not really when you add first it means that's the first thing to do, lets start here first, means before anything else.

@westwind,
A - "let's start from here," as in planning a trip.
B - "let's start here," as in solving a problem
Both are correct and carry their own inflection to the subject at hand.

thank you jtt, caroline and dknichol. thank you all for helping out.
but a another problem occurs to me that it is hard for me,an english learner, to judge which one of you is right. can i assume the two sentences i asked are interchangeable in general.

You can, WW. Mr/Ms Nichol noted one difference. There may be other specific instances where one or the other would be chosen, but generally they're the same.
