You can often find a local legal aid center by googling the term “legal aid” and the name of your city, or by looking in the phone book.

We are just returning from a 4 day vacation at a resort in Captiva Island. Had a great time except when we went to sleep. On the 2 day my 3 year old son woke up in the mid night screaming that something had biten him. He than slept over in our bed and I slept in the pull out bed in the living room with our older son. By morning I to was biten as well as our older son. I currently have over 75 bites in my body of which 35 bites are on my right leg.
Also, while waiting for the bus another lady was complaining of the same problems. She thought it was mosquitoe bites in her room. Please tell what can I do to prevent this night vampire from striking again to some family and besides the hotel who should i contact to inforce action.

If you want to take legal action, you will need a lawyer.
If you want someone to inspect this hotel room, you might call the local city or county health department. Many articles mention hotels being inspected for bed bugs and forced to remediate problems after people call the local health dept. and an inspector is sent out.
You might also place a review on http://tripadvisor.com warning others. At the very least, others will see your review before booking.
