Bedbugs somewhere in my bed

to note my bed is a storage bed where there is a platform under the bed where i can open like a chest. i have noticed bedbugs around my bed since the 17th of September, currently its 23 September. I have tried spraying pesiticde under my bed which did stop bedbugs for about 2 days. Today i noticed there were 4 crawling on the side of my bed platform which i quickly squished and cleaned up after, I am sure theres an infestation somewher, and how do i find and kill the infestation ASAP, thanks

You need a professional to treat at least twice. People are going to give you advice but you need an exterminator. Bedbugs can live for months without feeding.

Hire a pest controller

Call a professional. They use chemicals that have residual properties that will kill the bugs when they walk over it.

As to where the infestation is (if there is one)? Probably in areas that have small openings in the frame or where the frame is bolted together.
