    The FAQ's on this site are a good place to start.

    Call your state university they should have an entomology dept.
    Also Harvard charges $20.00 and I think the link is on this site.

    In what condition do the bedbugs need to be to be identified? I have a very tiny one that was dead when I picked it off of me with a Q-tip and put a little piece of tape over it to keep it from falling off. Also, I have two adults that walked through my drione dust and got caught in my sticky trap; they're dessicated. It's difficult to get the very small ones with smashing them.
