I would suggest calling a PCO company asap (one with an entomologist on staff) and have them guild you in the right direction. I would also recommend contacting your MD and find out what suggestions he/she has. </p> http://bedbugger.com/forum/topic/bedbug-or-something-else#post-107076 Tue, 03 May 2011 22:43:38 +0000 dasmo801 107076@http://bedbugger.com/forum/ <p>Found <a href="http://img64.imageshack.us/i/dscf4507f.jpg">this bug</a> on my shirt today. Thing is, its the fourth identical one that I have found in my house over the last few days. The first one was crawling on my daughter's hair while she was in bed. I found another one on her blanket. The next day there was another one crawling on my sons shirt. This one here was the only one that I managed to photograph. </p>
