What did you fumigate with (original author)?

I'm trying to deal with a case of these in one part of my apartment - invisible to naked eye, biting, causing itches, active after 5 pm. My "bites" don't show.

I haven't tried freezing things. I have found that putting dry clothes in the dryer on the hottest setting for 20 minutes kills whatever is in them, so I don't have to wash, say, my coat every time I wear it.

I've also found that Selsun Blue - just the original medicated one, with the red cap - rids my hair and body of them. In laundry, have followed advice to use Borax and ammonia.

But haven't eliminated them from the apartment yet. No idea where they came from, live in big-city highrise.

Have been reading everything I can find online. There unfortunately do seem to be some of these things that can live on people, in spite of previous belief that they could not. Suggestions I mention all found online and tested by me.
