Well, as I think I've said before we had a badly infested sofa bed (cheap fabric one, like a futon) we had bites for weeks before but weren't sure what it was until we found them. wanted to get a pro to do the job but it was way too expensive.. didn't bother asking more to see if there's anyone cheaper (big mistake 1)
Got rid of sofa & bought plain metal frame and sprung mattress (no headboard) and started vacuum cleaning the room+mattress once a week and check the bag for any "samples".
Getting rid of the sofa was great, but in a week or so we were getting bites again, but not as bad as before. Went to see an exterminator again , this guy was much cheaper but still (big mistake II) thought we'd try foggers first.
First fogger seemed to kill quite a lot, no bugs at all after the 2nd one, but then I started getting bites again, first finding them on my pajamas early morning, and then on my clothes and my bag (only because i left it on the floor, probably) during the day. First there were just medium-size red ones, which were very easy to catch, but went on to find different sizes. Still no big ones as the ones we had on the back of the sofa, though. The weird thing is, that when they just started I had bites on my arms and feet and now mostly under my clothes,like socks,pants and bra.
I haven't use anything on my skin, just some astihistamne cream and tea tree soap?
Also, we are using mattress spray, the type that says it would keep them away, not kill them and it smells quite strong. Could this be the problem?
Don't mind getting really bad bites again if they go back hiding whehere they used to be..
Thank you for reading!
