    People try to get rid of them with fancy bug bombs, but since bed bugs go into and hide in places you wouldn't dream of checking, a professional exterminator is the only way to do this right.

    I have to agree with all of the above. Bed bugs are a b*tch to get rid of. I do know that they have trouble climbing, so making sure that they have nothing to climb on to get to your mattress is a good thing, but it's impossible to do unless you suspend your bed from the ceiling.

    You need a professional, and you may have to bring that professional back a few times before you completely get rid of them. They're not easy to exterminate. They're a huge problem. Once you've got them, you'll spend a long time and a lot of money getting rid of them, if you even do.

    All I can do is wish you luck, you'll need it.

    There has many way to get rid of bed bugs. Although I think it is not so serious matter. I would get a pro to come into the house and clean it up. But until you do that, it sounds weird but take all you sheets off your beds, wash, in HOT water with plenty of detergent, air dry, and shake out. THEN: This is the POINT: It may sound weird but take your vacuum and vacuum you mattress... for a really long time... it can help! - you can also throw a tiny layer of vaseline by your bed legs so the bugs can't get into the bed to begin with!! Try vacuuming and do it a couple time, flip the mattress if you can and vacuum both sides.
    You will get more information in here about the best way to get rid of bed bugs.

    A little help from the exterminator is better than going solo. The bed bugs are really hard to get rid of. While waiting for the professional bug killer, you can also wash all your clothes and linens, even the unused ones. Then heat them up with a hair blower for up to 30 minutes. This ensures that there'll be no bed bugs left hanging after the exterminator has done his or her job.

    You can also try to read a few lines here. I advice you to read up to the conclusion so you'll know what you're dealing with.

    Good luck

    Thanks, lefthookpunch. That's a fairly good article, if a little out of date. This question was asked over six months ago, however, so let's consider it answered.
