I also agree that you should talk to an attorney about this. My office has dealt with cases very similar to this one. A consultation with an attorney would be very beneficial to you. My contact information is (203) 325-8800. If you are interested feel free to give my office a call at your earliest convienence.

I think you need to talk to an attorney about this.  It sounds to me like you have a case, although your lawyer will want to review all of the facts, to give you reliable advice.

In most states, there is an implied warranty under the law, that a product being sold is reasonably fit for its intended use.  I'd say bedbugs violate that warranty, although there probably aren't a lot of precedents for that lately -- although there very well might be some coming.  These pests have resurfaced in the last few years, and have become a very large problem.
