Make sure you get the food-grade kind, not the stuff they use in pools
Sprinkle it on the floor around your bed and clothes racks/cupboards and leave it overnight. In the morning vacuum it up and throw the vacuum bag out. Repeat daily for about a week or until you notice the number of bedbugs or irritation decreasing, then start increasing the amount of time that you leave the powder out for.
Its also good to check for them everynight before you go to sleep. Be sure to check under your mattress, and all around your bed frame.
We would collect them in a jar and them leave them in the sun to make sure they were dead.
We got the pest control guys out and they reduced the problem but werent able to get rid of them.
the best thing that we found to deal with them is Diatomaceous Earth - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diatomaceous_earth
