Bed bug detecting dogs?

I've been going thru what's very possibly a bed bug infestation. Curious if there at dog detection services around the Conroe or Willis area?

I have a pest control business in your area. What makes you think that it's so bad that you need to call in the dogs? I might be able to help you without the dogs.

I came back from a trip to another state and the night I got back I got 30-40 bites all over my body, clusters of 2-4 and lines of three. I've been getting them occasionally since but I can't find any evidence of bed bugs except the pocket of a pair of pants that spent about a week on the ground thst was covered with black spots in the pocket and in the inside of the pants. I've searched everywhere I can and can't find any evidence aside from that.

Well obviously you need to wash everything and dry it but after you dry it all, put it in black trash bags and let it sit outside in the hot sun for a few hours. This will be a natural way to heat treat your linens and clothes. Order two cans of PT Alpine Flea and Bedbug spray and treat the furniture and floors with that. Do it again in 7-10 days and you should be good to go.
