The couple, from Edinburgh, also shared images showing their arms and legs covered in hundreds of bites which have cost them 80 so far to treat.

Liam and Laura, who are not due to fly home until this weekend, have been moved to a different apartment in the same complex.

Jet2 have apologised for the horrific ordeal they faced and revealed that their original apartment had been fumigated.

Laura initially thought the bites were a reaction to Spanish plants but then they found the bugs beneath their beds while staying at Sol Parc Apartments in Son Parc.

The family were forced to disinfect all of their clothes and were given an injection and medication from Spanish doctors.

Laura wrote on Tuesday: Jet2, absolute disgrace. The last week of holiday we have all been itchy thinking its a reaction to the trees etc.

Looked online and our bites looked like bed bugs bite pulled all the covers back and saw loads of bed bugs.

We are all so itchy and painful. Jet2 wont move us to a different complex unless we pay a fee absolute disgrace.

We have two small children with us! Worst holiday ever.

Yesterday she shared an update, adding: Had to ask to get our clothes disinfected.

Went to the doctor, me and my partner had to get an injection in the bum and have cream and tablets to take.

Boys have medicine and cream we now obviously have no clothes so have to sit in another day ruined.

Moved to a different room again in case of infestation.

I have went with Jet2 most times first time package holiday and they have always been good but when you have a problem theyre no use.

Three days of hell left though. 55 for doctors and 34 for medicine.

Its shocking. I feel like Im in a nightmare no one seems to care that we have nothing to wear.

Ive had four hours sleep due to the itch. Not fun at all. Holiday ruined.

Lauras post has been shared over 1,500 times and attracted hundreds of comments from outraged followers.
