The most important question is how to get rid of it, it's all over my bed and comes outside in dark. Even changing the bedsheets doesn't help.

If these are all over your bed and they come out at night then you have a bad case of bed bugs and you will need to get rid of the bed to start off with, clean the home you are living in, and maybe even get pest control to come out and spray your home. it sounds like you have a bad infestation of bed bugs and they have been there for quite some time. You will need to check your other furniture to make sure they are not in the house or even in your carpets. If you live in an apartment you will need to contact the landlord because these could have come into your home from your neighbor's house next to you.
Bedbugs!
Very bad news as it is almost impossible to get rid of these by DIY methods. Also, probably wherever you go (and anyone living in the same place) will be carrying these pests with you so you are infecting every area of your house/apartment and probably carrying them with you to work or wherever you go outside of your home.
If this is a new to you living space and it is furnished, then you should contact your landlord as they would be responsible for taking care of this problem in the apartment/home. You would still have to take care of your personal items, especially all clothing.
If the bed is your property then you would be responsible for paying all expenses to an exterminator and you will need one for this type of problem.
You may have brought the bugs in with your bed or you may have been visiting (or had a visitor) that was infested and brought them home with you.
Hotels/motels are having a lot of problems with bedbugs as people bring them in when staying overnight.
Maybe friends have them?
It will be a lot of trouble and expense to remove these from your personal items in addition to the cost of an exterminator.
This looks like a Bed Bug, they have painful bites and infest your home and surroundings. You would need a professional service to get rid of them. www.peststrategies.com/
Looks just like a bed bug
You will definitely need an insecticide servicing for this
Hi,
It is a bedbug, I can tell by the shape of it. I would place diatomaceous earth all around the bed, and the mattress, and along the creases of the mattress, as well as underneath the mattress, and under the bed. I would also liberally sprinkle salt all over the carpet around the bed and any areas, under rugs, etc.
Wishing you luck!
Have a blessed day!

Bedbugs are one of the few times I (who is totally anti chemical) will advise getting a professional in to take care of this. They will have all of the protocols for getting it out of your bed, all soft furniture, clothing, etc.
Follow their guidance to the letter and you still may need to retreat several times. Wishing you all the best.
Post back with an update! Prayers for good solutions and a quick resolve!
