I guess part of my question was also even if there are a lot of insects, is that necessarily a problem? I'm not getting sick and they're not destroying my things or anything
I sometimes have a bunch of bite marks all over my body when I wake up but idk, they disappear quickly and I still somehow don't get sick even though I live a very unhealthy life
Fruit flies are just an annoyance. Roaches are harmful mostly in that they can contaminate your food/kitchen stuff and make you sick, but they don't bite. If you're waking up with bites, I'd check your mattress and bed for signs of bedbugs. Little black/dark red dots in cracks and corners are the telltale signs.
Do not spray bed bugs. A lot of that stuff won't actually kill them and just causes them to move somewhere else temporarily. They can jump several feet. You'll want an exterminator to deal with the infestation properly, along with some other steps to deal with them.
The old school method was to pour boiling water over your mattress, but honestly you're better off slashing it open and have it taken to a dump.
Thanks

That sounds like bed bugs, strip your mattress and look for them along the seams
I have, can't find anything at all
Have sprayed every inch of all my bed stuff with isopropyl multiple times too
I'd check periodically
