Then until recently again on my ankle one bite.. same characteristics
So I suspect bed bug infestion, I checked around the corner and folds, found one red bug and one tiny baby buy..
The question is.. how do I solve this issue..
Is it possible to diy at home?

burn the house down with everything in it. then buy new house. rclxs0.gif

get a bed bug killer spray.
most important is cleanliness. clean your bedroom and change the sheets often.
prevention is better than cure.

bed is where a human being spent quarter of their life on. treat it as your holiest spot in the house and make sure you are clean before you get on the bed.

what you could really do is get those guys that offers vacuuming services with those robotic vacuum. i think you can find them easily online.

If cheap tilam, throw it away.
Spray ridsect in the whole room/house, cracks on the floor, floor, wall, any cracks on the wall, skirting, bed, side drawers, table, etc etc...

unless you are sure you can destroy every single one of them in and out... it's futile.
better to remove them before the infestation spreads across the room or house. *bed bugs can hide even in your cupboard

Since throw tilam is out due to expensive tilam and fairy new... try killing the bugs.

Sleep in another room, remove all items like bed sheet, blankets, etc and wash in hot water. move furniture near the bed away so reduce the chance of them moving away and hiding and spray with pesticides, repeat again 4/5 days and next 4/5 days. In case bed bugs eggs hatch and cycle continue again.

Not sure what pesticide you can get your hands on...

You can get pesticide bomb and bomb the whole room at night, repeat again few days later and again. If cannot get bomb, spray ridsect in the whole room at night, on the bed, wall, floor, etc... oily residue will kill the bugs if they come out. sleep somewhere or in the living room.

bed bug trap, if you can get one place one at a dark corner and monitor, see if can catch any or not. Last time I suspect was bitten by bed bugs I also did all these, but luckily it was not as nothing caught on the trap.

Other stuffs you can try
bed bug steamer device, steam and heat from the steamer will kill the bugs
UV bug light, run it thru the bed, UV will damage the bug and egg cells so they will die, but if the bugs are hidden deep inside the mattress, it would be able to reach them.

You can try combining the various methods to kill. Good luck

I had the same problem a few years ago.

I tried everything.
Mass cleaning.
Threw my mattress and frame away
Bed bug bomb
Consumer insecticide.
Steam cleaning every nook and corner.

Nothing works.

Just get pest control.
It will be cheaper in the long run.
