Standard treatment is for the techs to drill small holes into your walls and inject either a foam or dust into the void, since bed bugs can and will retreat into walls if they want to get to safety.
You'll then need to strip your bed down to the mattress, put all the sheets and stuff in it into the laundry and dryer on high heat to kill any that might be lurking in there.
They'll also spray the hell out of the bed frame, the bottom/sides of the mattress, and anything attached to the bed with pesticide that interrupts their growth cycle. Probably will end up spraying the baseboards around the bedroom as well as any other rooms you've seen them. You'll also definitely need to get a bedbug cover for the mattress and the boxspring, to keep them from getting back in.

If you DO live in an apartment, the landlord generally will be the one to pay for it. If not, I don't really know what places would charge in your area, but here in NY, it's probably in the $200 region, but any decent company will give you a warranty for 3 months or so, since depending on how many are living there, it might take more than one treatment cuz bedbugs are durable AF (they can go without eating for upwards of 11 months o_o )
So I cover all my belongings while they do this right?

How smart are you? How dumb am I? Don't count any, of my advice.
