I have found one of these bugs crawling on me when in bed the last 2 days. The area is clean, the sheets and bed are clean, but we have been leaving our window open due to the nicer weather. Anyone know what this bug is and how to get rid of them or what causes them?

The picture is very dark, if it has brown and tan or white spots or like a checker boarded pattern, it is carpet beetle. Very common. They are out this time of year. You vacuum them up, do a good house cleaning and they usually go away. You may need to clean the perimeter of your house to get rid of dead leaves and brush and get rid of birds nests as both attract them.
From what I am seeing in the photo this is a typical carpet beetle that can be removed from your home with some sticky flypaper or a good cleaning. Vacuum up the room and empty the container right away i the trash cans. Make sure you do this on trash day so they don't come back.
after blowing up your picture, this is a Carpet Beetle. It loves to damage fibers, such as carpets, furniture, and clothing.
It is really hard to tell.
Does it fly?
Does it crawl?
Is it more round or more flat?
Try to leave the window closed for a few days and see if they come back. If they are still around, and if on top of all it does not have wings/fly and is in general more flat, then chances are it could be a bedbug.
