Can anyone tell me if this is a bed bug? It was dead and then I found this shedding in another spot. The bug itself is quite small and the shedding was larger.

The "shedding" is beetle larvae. The other bug picture is a beetle, not a bed bug.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you... for taking the time to answer my question and for giving me the answer I want to hear! My husband and one of my dogs got some bites the other night and I was concerned. I tore everything apart and this was what I found... and it's not a bed bug. Whew!

I should identify for anyone else looking at my photo. The top left is the bug from the top. The top right is a photo of the bug turned upside down. The lower left is the shedding skin, the lower right was the bug in relation to the shedding.
