Hi Jerome,
I’m sorry you’re experiencing this. I’m afraid we’re volunteers and don’t make house calls.
Can you add good, clear close-ups of the bugs to this site? I can try to identify them.
Here’s information on how to deal with fleas and bed bugs:

Your may want to call an exterminator for help. Good luck.

Under attack! Plz help me!
I have a person using insects to assault me and my property to harass me on behalf of an Ex. I have been infested with scabies. My property infested with fleas, and to my horror bed bugs . They are putting insects all over my vehicles. I have about 14 I buy and sell cars. They put them in between my storm door . They have introduced bugs into my home by my mailbox, which goes through to my living room. They have put bugs on my bathroom window on my living room window. They can pull the screen and throw them in. They’ve done that before in the middle of the night.. Video of them coming onto my property with a bag and spending four minutes attacking the rear of my house and a scooter I ride with parasites. I immediately spray now for them. My problem is when I call the police to come document what’s happening to me. I have dead bugs to show them and they say this looks like dirt these look like seeds and nobody knows what these stage white bedbugs are.. .. I am being looked at like I’m crazy even though I’m covered in bedbug bites. I want to the ER to have the marks on my body identified and they have no clue what they are. I had to discover myself, but they are bedbug bites and then the bedbugs and the infestation I’m here in my own home attacking them before they attack me, I need help identifying and showing that these are indeed insects that I have collected samples of , Can you please help me??

Hi Jerome,
I'm sorry, we are master gardener volunteers, we don't visit properties and we are not bug experts. All I can do is refer you to pages like the one below which may help you identify the bugs you're seeing:
https://extension.umn.edu/household-insects/biting-insects
If you still can't identify the insects, it would be good to try another professional exterminator. If you are worried about your health, please see your doctor.
I'm sorry I can't help more. Good luck.

Jerome this photo doesn’t help me. I’m sorry. I’ve offered as much information as I have. Please seek professional help. I’m going to close this question. Thanks.
