You’re going to need to get an exterminator to spray the place.

call in an exterminator. throw away any and ALL mattresses, pillows, etc. they are very hard to kill off these things and it’s just better to start over. DO NOT put new bedding into your home until exterminator is done, and you’ve waited 48 hrs for bugs and eggs to die off. THEN steam clean the house!!!! carpets, vinyl flooring/wood flooring, tiles, walls EVERYTHING! just to be on the safe side.
wash in HOT water all clothes, sheets, pillow cases, etc.

It takes longer than 48 hours. You need to keep checking as once steam cleaning is done, these areas are immediately prone to re-infection, so a thorough check is necessary after two weeks, and again after another two weeks. Use Diatomaceous Earth, often referred to as ‘DE’. Sprinkle liberally all around the bed and in numerous other places in infected places.
