Spray raid all around your bed, behind the headboard, under the bed and on the mattress. Wait a night for it to work its magic, and then your problem should be solved. If its not, than try spraying it around the perimeter of the room (along the walls and by the door) because there might be a window or crack they are getting in through. Make sure you wait atleast one or two days for the smell of the raid to wear off; it can be toxic if too much is breathed in.

You have to act fast, before this gets out of control. Here is a link:
Okay, it is scary but there’s no need to panic. Follow the tips here:

First of all, make sure you sleep in the same room, if you move to a couch, the bugs will follow you there, you want to keep them confined to only one room.
Dry your clothes for 20 minutes before putting them on.
You say you haven’t seen many, or seen evidence on your mattress. That’s not uncommon, I never had spots anywhere on my mattress but noticed black spots on the walls (before I actually saw any bugs)
If you see a bug, spray it with at least 70% rubbing alcohol. Alcohol will kill them. Follow the advice in the article and good luck!
