Recommendations: Did you bomb and spray your house yourselves or did you hire professionals? It is said that there is much higher success in eradication if you have professionals do it. In terms of your ongoing symptoms, I would recommend trying both a systemic antihistamine and a hydrocortisone cream on areas of itching, and do you very best to not scratch as this can lead to secondary skin infections. Good luck!
