From what the California Department of Public Health Vector-Borne Disease Section says, a bed bug bite may not show for up to 14 days!

Everyone reacts differently to bed bug bites, but if a reaction does occur, it usually happens by late morning.

Bedbugs usually have a hiding place very near where you sleep such as under your mattress or in bed's structure or perhaps in the wall or under the floorboards close to your bed. So it will usually only take a minute or two at most to show up when one desires a meal of your blood. They most commonly come out looking for a meal an hour or so before sunrise, but it may be any time during a night. They inject a kind of anaesetic into you before commencing each meal, which makes the area around where they bite you go numb. So you are unlikely to feel them while they are feeding. Each meal takes the bedbug about five minutes so that is how long it will be on your body sipping your blood. After the meal the bedbug normally returns to its hiding place usually without you waking up, and the anaesthetic then wears off so only then you may start to itch and feel a need to scratch where the bedbug bit you.
