If you didn't change the pine shavings then they are hiding in there and jumping back on the chickens. Been there done that. Reapply 10 days after you dusted. You will need to throw away the bedding yet again.

I have to pick up some dust tomorrow but I already got a head start by sucking the bedding out with my old shop vac and burning it, I will put new bedding in after I dust the birds and the coops. Also mine have "chicken lice" not mites, I hear mites are much harder to clear up?

I have never dealt with lice- just mites.

Yes, I just reread your post and you did say TAN bugs. Which sounds like lice. I apologize.
