Took me a few months to finally admit our apartment had bedbugs. My cat was chasing one on the matress and I couldn't deny it anymore! Luckily, I put the bedbug in a sealed ziploc bag. My landlord wouldn't/couldn't treat our apartment without proof that we had them. Our apartment was treated by professional exterminators. Shortly after their initial treatment, we found another bedbug crawling on the couch so we put it in another ziploc bag. The exterminators came again....we haven't had a problem since! It was fairly easy once I told my landlord. We didn't have to get rid of any furniture, bedding, or clothing. I guess our apartment wasn't that badly infested. It's been a year now and still no bedbugs!
