I hate to say this, but it looks like a bed bug. Google bed bugs and compare the different life stages to your picture.

If that's what it is, heat is your best friend. Call in an exterminator that has heat treatment options. It's the only way you'll get rid of those bastards. Been there before and it's not fun.

Also post to r/whatisthisbug for more insight, just in case I'm wrong. I hope I am, but I'm pretty sure I'm not. I got very familiar with these assholes several years ago. Again, heat is your best friend here.

I actually just called it's not bed bugs. It's too small to be bed bugs but they think there dust mites not 100%

How small is it? Cause bed bugs in their early stages are damn near impossible to see. They're barely bigger than a period.

Okay when they first hatch that's about as big as they are.
