What Could Feeling Of Something Crawling On Skin Indicate?

At night before I go to bed I start feeling little crawlings on my skin. Just as I jump up turn the light on I inspect the bedding and I dont see anything? Can you tell me if this is bedbugs and should I throw away my blankets, my bed my whole box spring?
