Bed Bug help needed

Hi, I'm looking for recommendations for an affordable bed bug treatment company in the Casa Grande area. I've been getting quotes in the thousands of dollars and it's just not feasible right now. If anyone has used a local pest control company for bed bugs and had a good experience at a reasonable price, I'd really appreciate the referral! Please drop a name, number, or tag them below. Thank you! 🙏

Unfortunately, bed bugs can be in a house for 9 weeks before a full blown infestation develops and they're found by bites.  So it's impossible to tell who brought them in. 
I've never had them.  But yes, Proper Insurance has a policy for them, which I have - bed bug extermination and business revenue, no deductible, $15K coverage.  If I ever got them, I'd for sure do the heat treatment, which is the gold standard. The other treatments take weeks to make sure they're all eliminated.  You've got to figure out what is least expensive, the heat treatment, or cancelling all your guests for 3 to 6 weeks.  And if you go with the chemical treatment and they're resistant, and it doesn't kill them all, your guests could take the bugs home with them.  And you've got to do it all over again with more cancelled guests and treatments.
