its definetly not from the breeder, i got my BP may 17 of this year and did not notice anything (and believe me i check) until last week. As far as pet stores i dont buy any supplies from them at all, just mice. Last time i was at a expo was 2 months ago, and i did buy supplies there, but 2 months without me noticing is not likely. The only thing i can think of, is i should have went with my gut instincts when i bought this "drig wood" bark for my tank. I have had bad experiences with bark/mites in the past and just plain dont trust bark. But again, i bought this 2 months ago and its just now mites showing.
I already ordered PAM, what can i do in the meantime? This sucks, its like finding out I AM the one with a disease or something, im gonna be feeling like crap until this is all over with....
