Photo of What is this bug?

For the last few weeks I’ve been finding these bugs in and around my bed. At first I thought they might have been tiny spiders because I found a few climbing on walls near spiderwebs, but now I’m worried they might be bed bugs. So far I haven’t been bitten, but once or twice I found one crawling on me.

I know these aren’t the best pictures (obviously it was taken after I already killed the bug), but it’s the best I could do. If anyone could help to identify it, I would really appreciate it – they’re driving me crazy! I can’t even sleep at night anymore.

(The weave in the background of the photo is a paper towel, just to give you an idea of how small they really are.)
