Check the bed: For bed bugs.  If you look in the seams of the mattress, you might be able to see the bugs.  If you are not talking about bites in the bed, then use an insect repellent on your hands at night.

i have very bad reactions to all insect bites but mosquitos seem to be the worst. the entire area swells, gets hot, hard, and extremely itchy. when i was you they gave me niacin to keep fleas from biting me, will the same work for mosquitos & spiders?
