We bought a futon for my daughter to sleep on and she started to get bites at night. We cleaned and washed all of her bedding thinking that we might have a spider around. My daughter is sleeping in a small bed in our room at the foot of our bed. We didn't get any bites but each morning she would wake up with nickle and quarter size bites. This went on for 3 days.
Finally we realized that the only thing that we didn't wash in the room was the new futon. We removed it from the house and put our couch cusions on her frame... No bites. It was the futon. I called The Futon Shop and they said that it couldn't be their futon. I asked for the owner to call me on my cell, she would not.instead she knowing left me a message on my home number when she knew I was out. She said that there is no possibility that her futon had bedbugs. I called her several times after that and she would not come to the phone or return my calls.
My daughter has to take Benatryl each day because the bites itch so much. She is uncomfortable sleeping and I don't want to see this happen to someone else. We have not been to any hotels and no one at my daughters preschool has had any bites. It was the "new" futon. There is no other explanation.
