Bed bugs do not go after certain blood types. Any mammal with blood is an equal opportunity feeding banquet. Yes, that includes your pets, though they probably prefer a less hairy human.
According to the Mayo Clinic, bed bugs need a blood meal to molt and their life cycle includes 5 molts. 5 bites may not seem too bad, however, the bed bug has about 200,000 brothers and sisters that need a meal...that's 1,000,000 bites! The female will lay close to 200,000 eggs per 10 month life cycle, so one can see how easily it can get out of hand.
