Haven’t been in my bed for 18 hours yet I’m still noticing more and more bed bug bites. Actually I haven’t been in a BED period
Help?
Why do I have lots of bed bug bites all over my body, when I haven't been in my bed?

Typically, no treatment is required for bed bug bites. If itching is severe, steroid creams or oral antihistamines may be used for symptom relief. Secondary bacterial infections that develop over heavily scratched areas may require the use of antibiotics.
You can look to see if you can identify the fecal stains, egg cases, and exuviae (shed skins) in crevices and cracks on or near beds. You should also look at other areas such as under wallpaper, behind picture frames, in couches and other furniture, in bed springs and under mattresses, and even in articles of clothing. While fecal stains and skin casts suggest that bed bugs have been present, these do not confirm that the infestation is still active. Observing the bed bugs themselves is definitive confirmation that your home is infested. You may require professional assistance from a pest-control company in determining whether your home contains bed bugs.
could be fleas or mosquitos as well.

You are covered with bugs that are biting you and you haven’t taken care of it?? Who cares if you have or have not been in bed, YOU HAVE BITING BUGS ON YOUR BODY!!!!
Are you positive they are bites from bedbugs?
Where are the bites mostly located? What do they look like?
Perhaps it’s fleas instead.
You should definitely have a visit by an exterminator and get the problem taken care of. Better to start the battle sooner rather than later as it can take a very long time to rid the infestation.
You may want to see a doc first though and make sure it’s not scabies or something else.
