Question by linda L:
I keep getting itchy like I have bed bugs or something?

I think there are microscopic bugs that keep biting me but I’m not sure. At first I thought I had bed bugs so I cleaned my sheets. But the itch wont go away and I’m sure it could be bug bites because often I would get tiny red dots. Verry tiny. I tried cleaning my house and my clothes but I keep itching. I live near the ocean and some of friends have told me it could be sea lice? What do you guys think?

It could be scabies
check these web sites out.
Also if that is what it is they are very hard to get ride of.
1st try putting a bed cover on your bed so you don’t get reifected
2nd clean all your clothes and bedding. even your couch.
vaccum everyday on the high trafic areas around the bed etc.
try using teatree oil in your bath.
neem shampoo wash all of your body.
lavender oil in the bath.
don’t reuse towels etc. wash everytime you use.
there is a good product on the web to kill these bugs.

also they are contagious.

They could be bed bugs. If you want to clean your house, you have to use a steamclear to kill bugs. Heat can kill the existing bugs without messing your room up like sprays or foggers. Those bugs won’t just go away if you wash your sheets or vaccume the rooms. Try Bed Bug Powder after using the steamcleaner. It is supposed to kill bed bugs, but it seems to kill those tiny bugs like sea lice or ticks. We are using it on our bed and on our cat (!! seriously!!) and it has been working pretty good. It is organic powder that is safe to humans and animals. Good luck!
