   I am beginning to wonder if what I am experiencing truly is new bites, or something else. Long story short: I moved out of my apartment about two weeks ago, where I had a confirmed BB infestation into my bf's apartment. We assumed he had them, too, b/c I would wake up with new marks at his place. Dermatologist looked at my marks and confirmed he thought they were bites (as opposed to a rash). We had 1 treatment at my bf's house, two weeks ago tomorrow. The rate at which I am noticing new spots is decreasing.

   So, most of my recent spots are in places like my lower back or under my armpit. Since moving into my bf's, I have been sleeping TOTALLY covered up in long pj's tucked into socks. Is it likely these suckers would go to that much trouble to climb into my clothes, rather than biting my exposed face, neck, hands, and forearms?

   Others have reported being bitten under clothing as well as on exposed parts (face, etc.)

   They may be crawling into gaps at your neck or cuff.

   Yes they bite the place where they can get the best blood meal and that is under the arm and around the butt , Lower stomach , neck, But they will bite anywhere if they cant get these places.
