Lately we've been bitten, I'm guessing dust mites or bed bugs, I'm tired of cleaning and washing, what else can I do to stop this?

I would also guess fleas! Your dogs can get this from everything from racoons to rabbits and other dogs! You can go to http://www.petsincredible.com/Coupons_main.php
for a printable coupon/rebate for K9Advatix and many other pet products.

If it is indeed fleas get the flea stuff to put on the dogs. Put it on and vacuum 2-3 times daily for a few days to suck the little buggers up as they jump on your dogs and then die from the chemicals. Make sure you put it on the dogs as soon as you put your son to bed this way it has 12 hours to absorb and your son will not be effected by it! It will take about 2-3 days to get them out of the house.

I have tried bombing and spent a fortune on flea dip baths for my dogs and the only thing that worked was the Advantix.. I was glad I listened to our vet! Also, during this period you can use OFF on yourselves to avoid further bites!

If it is bed bugs there are sprays out there to use. Also Google how to test your matress for them. I do not remember how but I know my mother does it everytime we travel!

Good luck and blessings to you!

I see that you have 3 dogs, could it be fleas that are biting you? Maybe check into that if cleaning and washing is not stoping the biting. Its the time of year for fleas to start irratating us all. Good luck.

i just read something somewhere about bed bugs...I quess if you have them, they leave a small stain spot on your sheets. I would say try vaccuming your mattresses and steam cleaning your carpet.
