A mosquito has been in our bedroom for about a week, biting regularly at

Is there any way to entice it out, so we can deal with it?


Sounds more like fleas and/or bed bugs.


we get just the one or possibly two bites between us, per night. The are
very itchy and swell into a red blob. The remain itchy for two or three
days. That seems just like a mosquito bite to me. Would fleas or bed bugs
not tend to bite with a lot more smaller bites?


No.
