We were just sprayed 5 days ago with Deltametrin (spelling?) and were clear for a few days, but then last night we found more bedbugs in the bed. We decided to buy a steamer so that we could treat some areas on our own. We found live bedbugs in the dressers. I wouldn't say a massive infestation, but quite a few more than we found on the bed. Anyway, the steamer we baught is a ConAir fabric steamer models GS6 and GS7. We purchased this brand at Wal-Mart for $60. We measured the temperature with a digital meat thermometer, and the max reading we got was 205 degrees F. We also visually confirmed that the steamer instantly killed live bedbugs on contact. To us this is a HUGE relief, knowing that we can spot kill bedbugs and get into tight crevasses and furniture joints without spraying a bunch of pesticides (which don't seem to work very well) and that we're also killing the eggs as well, which will prevent a reinfestation.
