    I abandoned my old apartment and bought new things and thought the problem was over. I put all my clothes in dryers and considered myself bedbug free. But then the bites came back and I keep receiving bites during daytime hours walking down the street or at times when I'm not in bed sleeping. I think they may have infested my backpack or something but I can't find anything. Could they be in my hair? My bed has been treated but I don't find blood spots or signs of near it. I vaccummed with a Eureka allergen vaccuum and threw the bag away immediately. Is there any type of inspector that can ACCURATELY check all crevices furniture and bags in Ohio?

    The same thing has happened to me. After trying to get rid of the bugs for six months, I moved out. I bought a new mattress and cleaned all my clothes and furniture. I'm not sure if they're back but I've had a few suspicious bites. I really don't know what to do anymore. Can someone please give me some advice?

    Keep a log of the "bite" appearances, get some climbups for your bed, wait one week after a "bite" and search for fecal stains and castings.

    Skin reactions can be caused by many things so don't get tunnel vision on BBs and ignore other possibilities.
