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.
