Clean your bed sheeets.,,,,take a shower.....STAY CLEAN:]

Stating clean will help to identify a problem, and can assist in preventing bed bugs, however, you should keep in mind that bed bugs infestations are not caused by being dirty. Cluttered or messy homes merely makes it more difficult to identify and treat infestations.

To avoid bedbugs there a a few things you can do. First of all know what they look like. Bedbugs are quite small with redish brown bodies and are shaped like ovals. Second look for signs they are there including feces and harsh odor. When leaving a hotel movie theater etc. Check your belongings and always wash them before using them again in your home. Hope this helps/ also try googling bedbugs

From what I've read, Bed bugs hunt you out base on your human body temperature and the Carbon dioxide you exhale to feed on you when you sleep. I don't think there is an 100% way to prevent you from being bite but I've read that first, you will have to wash all bedding and clothes in hot water and dry it in hot temperature. I believe that they die when the temperature reaches 115 to 120F. After washing all the beddings, you should isolate the bed, move it way from the walls, and put back the sheets on and make sure there is nothing hanging down from the bed that touches the floor. Many people use ClimbUp Insect Interceptor Bed Bug Monitor, they put that on the leg of the bed so when a bug bug tries to climb up to your bed from there it would be trapped and hopefully it can be killed if you put pesticide on it. Also, I read that you can put two side tape all around your bed even on the sides of the mattress so when it tries to get to you when you sleep it might traps them.
