Someone is babysitting for me. They very recently found bedbugs and professionally treated the house, but theyre waiting for another treatment soon, and still sees an occasional bedbug.

For adults Im pretty sure theyre not more dangerous. Is a bedbug bite any more dangerous for an infant, than a mosquito bite?

I wouldn’t think so. My kids got them in a hotel. They weren’t any worse than mosquito bites, unless Ofcourse there’s an allergic reaction.

They are annoying and can infest your house from her stuff. But I don’t think they are dangerous.

Don't send to a babysitter who has bedbugs. You don't want your child bitten. And you don't want to bring them back home. Just my humble opinion.

I don’t think they’re dangerous, but you may not want to use that babysitter right now if that’s an option. They spread pretty easily and are a big headache to have and expensive to treat.
