Hi ,this sounds dreadful , firstly wash the sheets throughly until they are all clean , i would recommend you bought new mattresses and bed clothes and sheets. also try using a mattress protecter this will stop bed bugs spreading , hope this helps , good luck

Yes i agree new matresses and linen quilts pillows and that. Then to prevent them from coming back, stand on your bed (i would say once a month) with your hoover and gentle jump as you hoover the matress. Urm but please seek professional help to clear them out because even though they are called bed bugs they dont just live in you bed, they could/will be in clothes, curtains, carpets, furniture etc. And as they could be in clothes they can be transfered to other parts of the house. It would probably work...
