How to get rid of bed bug bites?

Would getting a new bed, new blanket + sheets work? Also cleaning the area around the bed, the carpet etc.

What other options are there? Thanks.

    LISTEN TO ME PLEASE

    i have been through it all girl!

    first thing you need to do, is dont waste any money on speacil sprays! get alchol and 3 bodels the least! then get posion powder for bugs that breaks there shells when they conact the bed bugs or any other bug. and t last, but not least, a mattress cover and garbage bags. Thats it !

    now you can all get this in your 99cents store.

    1rst - put all fabrics cloths in a bag

    2nd- clean up all your clutter mess in your room, mop swaep etc. they love clutter

    3rd- once you have all your cloths in bags and your room in clean. take a spray bodel and spray every nok in your room in were you think there hiding, doesnt have to be evey single place but defently holes in the walls . ( remeber they can travel through walls )

    4th- take your posion powder and put that every were you cant put water like electronics etc also dont forget to get it in every intrence of the floor in your house . that way they dont travel

    5th- finally spay your bed down from the creases and the bed frame to the floor spray it with alchol and appy powder

    6th- put a matress cover on your bed and seal the zipper of the matress cover with some tape.

    7th- last but not least sporate your bed away from the wall! cause they can very well travel through walls make sure nothing is touching that wall. and every night you have to spray down your mattress cover and have that bodel near you when you sleep so that if you feel an ich you spray the bastered and its dead

    this worked for me and it helped me alot

    hope this helps you too

    o and dont forget to keep your cloths in bags for several mouths and wash them with hot water

    You HAVE to call an exterminator. I've had them twice in 2 different houses. They don't always live in your bed, they may live in a different area of your room or house. They are creepy and I hate them! As for the actual bites- don't itch them or break the skin. Get some soothing lotion.
