CLOSED: Please help identify this (bed?) bug!

Davis, CA

Hi,
I've been getting one or two bites usually on my arms or legs every night. I wake up and find the bites but can't seem to find any insects around except for these things.
I'm not sure what they are, I found them in my carpet near the walls and underneath some things around my bed. I sometimes see them climbing on the wall, but that happenes rarely.
The bug in the picture is kind of curled up and very small. It is sitting on a kleenex.
These bites are really annoying! Can someone please help?

I've posted another picture that might help... it's the bottom view

I think it's a Carpet Beetle larva, the beetle itself is very small and they do lay their eggs in carpets but can also lay them in old birds nests. I had the beetles in my garden this year, hope I don't get them in the house!
