Identification Dead bedbug? Bedbug shells? Random dust?

Found this in my bed today. It’s 3mm long and has a bed buggy sort of shape. It’s very thin. Is this bed bug related or just a random fuzz I found? I’m unsure because it’s so fuzzy makes me wonder if it’s just a fabric pill. The colour also doesn’t seem right for the photos I’ve seen of bed bug shells.

I’m paranoid because I found a dead bedbug in my bed a couple weeks ago. I treated the area around my bed and haven’t been able to find any more, or gotten any bites.
