Fumigator or bug bombs are the last thing you wanna use it dosent kill them and makes them move to other rooms. Get rid of, or bag your mattress and dry everything including stuffed dolls/toys. Vaccume your room every day. Got to home depot and get flea/bed bug spray comes in a white container with purple lettering, spray your base boards and around electrical outlets with it. Bed bugs cant move around good at all they are living approx 2 feet from where you sleep so concentrate on thoes areas the most. Most important never rent an apparment near CSU they all have bed bug infestations.

I can attest to the fact Raid bug bombs do not work.

Fire kills them.

Professionals are where it is at. Bed bugs are nasty

I was in a presentation last summer about bed bugs, apparently there isn't much you can do about them. All of the above suggestions might work. Apparently HEAT kills them, but you have to heat the whole house or rooms at a time. (someone stated that above)

diatomaceous earth is supposed to work also. So I'd look into multiple of these options. It was also suggested in the presentation, that professional extermination wasn't the best option.

Definately get rid of the bedding.

It was also presented to us; we'll all end up with them, as the eggs from them stick to just about anything. Shoes, pants and such. You'll bring them home with you.

Some people are favoring to bring DDT (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane) back.

I read that they cannot tolerate heat- there are some exterminators using a technique that involves bringing the whole building to no more than 135 degrees, and it's very effective. Called it thermal remediation.
