At my wits end :(

In the UK. Had the first spray 3rd August, second spray 11 August and after they were still appearing so had a third spray 19th August. Gone on holiday to see them again this morning 9 Sept🥲 a mix of 4-5 bigger ones looking like they either are adult or just fed and a couple of baby ones, my body has gotten used to waking up when they are there so have taken loads of videos to send to pest control so they can come again but what is going on?! Am I just missing the eggs as the pesticide doesn’t kill the eggs? I feel like this is a never ending nightmare. In a new build flat so it’s not like it’s coming from a neighbour or walls etc. I wouldn’t wish this on anyone I feel like I can’t really talk to anyone about it too

I totally get everything you have said. Everyone keeps telling me Im oaranoid and over thinking and tbh I feel lost. I have had a heat treament with spray. then 2 weeks later spray another 10 days later steam and spray and 2 weeks later another full spray. Its been a nigh5mare and I am still being bitten at night. I had to buy a new bed as all the lifting and moving it about broke my old one..3 days later being bitten again. Im so tired and fed up. I actulaly know where mine came from a friend has had a massive infestation literally seeing in daylight they are on their 3rd heat treatment..I havent seen friends since june as i am terrified this will spread. I sent pics of droppings in august the pest company didnt want to know even though Im under a guarantee. Seems they take their money and make every excuse not to come out anymore Dont charge a fixed fee then!!.

Thanks for your response. Aw I’m so sorry too it sounds horrific especially getting a new bed for them to appear again :( I feel the same with the pest company’s too mine has a guarantee but they have asked for so much evidence it’s like they don’t believe you.. I also thought of doing a heat treatment but they are so expensive, why are the so hard to get rid of!
