Have you tried ‘bombing’ your house? That should work. But you’ll have to leave the house for a while. Maybe it’s time for a weekend vacation.

You also need to bleach everything that can be bleached, and wash all the linens you can in very hot water. Try using Borax in the carpet and on the bare mattress. Sprinkle it dry, let it sit all day, and then get it up with the vacuum.

If you’re still having problems after trying both, and bombing then you need to get help from a pro.

You don’t get rid of them. Professionals say you should get rid of everything they come in contact with such as sheets, pillows, and even the matress and all your clothing.
