my room is infested with small, brown bugs! help me please?

They've been in my room, everywhere for about two years.. we managed to get rid of them but they've came back.

Its digusting! They've crawled all in my school books, my clothes and in my bed :(

They can fly, are pretty tiny (im guessing about 2mm long and 1mm wide?) have shells and can fly. I kill hundreds of them daily and there are dead ones everywhere

For some reason, hundreds of them have decided to live in my toybox and imbed themselves in my soft toy's fur. What the hell are they? And more importantly, How the hell do you kill them so they never come back.

Please, im desperate x

Update:

i haven't got any bites :)

    First of all, if your bugs can fly then they're NOT bedbugs; so rest easy on that score.

    You can use a bug spray in areas where they concentrate (don't spray your bed or clothes however) or where you think they might be getting into your room. Sealing entrances into your room from outdoors is always a good idea.

    For best results, you'll want to identify what type of bugs they are. This will help you better understand how to deal with them. Google images of box elder bugs and stink bugs and see if they match your bugs. If not, take and post pictures and hopefully someone can identify them.

    They sound like either Elder box tree bugs or stink bugs. If they are elder box bugs, there mus be an Elder box tree somewhere near your house and the bugs found an opening in your room and infested it. Same with stink bugs, an d the only way to permanently get rid of them is to find where they are getting in from and seal it and get an exterminator to kill them.

    sounds like woodworm (fixtures beetle) to me ! examine all your previous fixtures, particularly the plywood backs for small holes. If the infestation is undesirable (i.e. a great number of holes)there will be a great number of advantageous sawdust on the floor under, and the ultimate guess is to do away with the article, and the two replace the lower back or ideally burn the coolest purchase. A small section may well be dealt with with woodworm fluid yet you will ought to stay vigilant. in spite of in case you in basic terms see a pair of the little horrors on the windowsills each and every day there ought to nevertheless be a considerable subject.

    Bed bugs are brownish reddish. Don't fly.

    Might be carpet beetles.

    Here are some pictures of the common house bugs.
