What is this bug? I'm afraid it's bed bugs, but I found it in my bathroom. This is the third time I've seen one in the past week.

These are water beetles or what some people call carpet beetles. They come in the home from the drains and love to be in wet moist places.
This insect is from the family Elateridae- commonly called Click Beetle. Other names include elaters, snapping beetle , spring beetle. These insects are outdoor insects.
Your bugs are definitely not bed bugs - bed bugs can be found in your bed and they bite!
I believe it is some type of beetle but there are so many different kind and so many look similar that it may be difficult to pinpoint which one from a picture.
It could be a click beetle, a ground beetle, a carpet beetle but getting rid of them is usually done in the same manner.
First thing to do is try to find out where they are getting into your home. This could be a thin 'crack' in the window sill or around the outside door.
You can read some comments about these bugs and maybe determine from some of the pictures which bug you have.
