I think the barn clothing swap is a good idea. you may want to watch the link I posted above, it's got details on how to manage situations like this (where you've been somewhere and may be exposed).
what they said is:
1) bag the exposed clothing in plastic bags before taking it in the house...
I think the problem is that the bombs *don't* work... and heat at 90 degrees in the house seems unlikely to be useful either... if that were true, bedbugs would not be a problem in areas with warm temps and no airconditioning. I posted a link from MO extension office, it's a good little video...

the guy who worked for us spent more than $7000 getting rid of them. and had to dump all of their furniture that had fabric on it.
*why* would one not see that mack truck coming...
a gentleman who worked for me had his house infested with bedbugs from a used sofa they were given... it took a YEAR to get them out of the house, after multiple attemtps they finally got them out with the high-heat treatment.
DE won't work. most pesticides won't work and the only one that...
