Tips:
1. If you are not sure whether your clothes, comforter, pillows or whatever are infected by bed bugs or not, pack them and put them into your trunk - the heat in Oklahoma will make them DIE and this is FREE!
2. After throw your mattress sets (unfortunately most of those who found bugs have to throw them away), do not buy new ones until bugs are cleaned up. Give yourself at least a buffering week to find out whether they are completely out because their larvae and pupae might still exist. During that period, sleep on an air mattress because you can easily carry it everywhere and the most important is that it can be sterilized in your trunk!
3. Wash and dry your clothes with DRIER as often as possible. Drier also works good at killing bugs and their progeny.
4. Make good covers for your mattress, pillow, comforter and so on. You do not have to wash everything to get rid of bugs but to wash covers.
5. Do not use Coleman air mattress. They suck. Leaking.
Wow - it sounds like you have been waging an extensive campaign against bed bugs. I am glad the trunk trick works. At least the heat is good for something...
