She and a pal left the Calypso Hotel, in Blackpool, Lancs, after waking up to find a live bug and specks of blood on sheets.
The hotel said: “We take any complaint of bed bugs very seriously and deal with it immediately.”
Sharon said: “Some of the bites have turned into purple marks.
“I don’t know if they are going to go – I think I’m going to be marked all down my arm.
“We are on four weeks already, and I’ve still got a big red mark on my face, under my eye.
“And in total honesty, it’s made me paranoid.
“If I get up to go to the toilet in the night, normally I would just go to the loo with the light off.
“Now I will turn the lights on and check the bed.
“They live under skirting boards, and they lay their eggs in the seam of the mattress.
“They don’t come out during the day, they come out in the dark…
“They see you as a meal, and they feed on you and scuttle off to wherever they go.”
