Since it is unreasonable to expect a child to warn others of such a problem, the mother does seem negligent [you can only include damages caused in the two year period before suit is filed]. Your big problem will be how are you going to collect anything? You can not go after the child support and a certain amount of her wages are protected. You also have to prove the bed bug problem came from her home [you should attempt to visit it before suing]. The testimony of a child does not have much weight behind it.
