Hi Dana, I'm so sorry to hear that bed bugs can be so hard to get rid of! I know washing all of your bedding / anything that's fabric and vacuuming daily is a good start. Here's some more info: https://www.bedbugguide.com/simple-trick-exterminates-bed-bugs-overnight
Call in the professionals immediately!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No home spun remedies work or work well enough on these infestations. The professionals know where to look, where to treat, they have the chemicals and the training to eliminate these, plus a call them back again if you have a problem warranty. This is what they do for a living and the average consumer does not.
You may have already spread them through contacts and family members. Remember they are not just in beds, they are in carpets, clothes, furniture...and so on.
A quick story, we were on an ocean front vacation at a resort and I was being bitten by what I thought was sand fleas, the bites turned out to be bed bugs. The staff took our luggage, all our clothes and laundered and treated them, and relocated us to another room. They then quarantined our room, the units to each side of it , and the rooms above and below ours.
They are highly contagious, get the professional now.
I would call a professional. I'm so sorry you're dealing with this problem.
here is info, Dana

Although many like to think relying on a professional is more expensive than DIY methods, the opposite is often the case. Exterminating bed bugs can be very labor and time-intensive. If the infestation is in your home, it can cost you valuable time you could be spending in other profitable endeavors. And if you have bed bugs in your business, the cost of resurgence can be quite high, as it may force you to close your business for a while.
But professionals understand the risk posed by bed bugs and are already looking out for these loopholes right from the start. You can be sure that a professional will help minimize the impact to your business and ensure you can be back making money as soon as possible. Other reasons to choose a professional include:

Hi,
Get rid of the BED!
You can also buy vinyl mattress covers for the bed if you can't afford new ones. They will also floresce under black light. Amazon has black light flashlights. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=blacklight+flashlights+for+bed+bugs&crid=1UNVRXNYEPJLN&sprefix=bed+bug+blackl%2Caps%2C249&ref=nb_sb_ss_ts-doa-p_1_14
You are going to have to wash everything, clean the carpets, pay particular attention to the cracks where the baseboards join the wall and the creases where the mattress and trim are sewn. There are quite a few non-toxic bed bug solutions now.... https://www.amazon.com/s?k=non-toxic+bed+bug+spray&ref=nb_sb_noss_1
You can use borax like 20 Mule Team Laundry Borax to do laundry, mattresses to rid them. Its cheap and find it at the supermarket in the laundry section. https://naturesmace.com/is-borax-effective-for-bed-bugs/ I always wash anything from a thrift store in hot water with borax.
If you live in an apartment, they can spread from one unit to another, so you should notify your landlordl.
