No.
I saw some bug spray for bed bugs and fleas in Home Depot today.
The eggs are hard to kill and you might have to treat them more than 2 times.
They are usually in the walls during the day and in the edges of the carpet.
Using some baking soda and salt on the carpet, work in with a broom, for several hours will kill the adults. They come out of the walls at night.

A zip up mattress pad will help with the mattress. They can live for a year without eating. Cleaning what you can under the mattress with rubbing alcohol will kill them. Vaccuuming the bed real good will help.
Cleaning things with rubbing alcohol can kill them.
Putting some baking soda with a little less soap in the wash and a cup of vinegar in the rinse water for your clothes should kill them. Then putting the things in sealed plastic bags will help.
