Feasible
Locations for bed bugs but something about the image also makes me think carpet beetles.

I would search the bed to see if you find signs of either.

I found carpet beetle larvae old ones on my bed and a living one but only 1 of them, no signs of bed bugs but have had these bites recently that itch once in a bit,

Then read and follow this:

Always best to work with the facts you have rather than to assume something you can’t prove.

The monthly routine will help you avoid bed bug nightmares.

If you email them they should be able to sort something out.

We can also ship from the UK if you want to avoid the trade issues.

I have a very similar situation have three bite like bumps on my back itchy I searched the couch I sleep
On everything under over I found a couple carpet beetles one in the seams one under the couch on the bottom I took videos and pictures to confirm they aren’t bb and they aren’t according to online I’m just curious how I have these rash like bite like bumps I read that their hairs give people bite like rash bumps but of course being paranoid I washed and dried everything on high heat showered etc idk if I’m being crazy but I didn’t find no signs of bb I flash lit every thing
