Probably springtails, they’re attracted to damp so probably living in the paper. They’re harmless. Bedbugs wouldn’t live there. They like warm claustrophobic environments and want to be near people.

Smart to be cautious though

Oh, neat, didn't know they were a thing. Hopefully that's all it was

I still chucked my clothes through the wash/drier and washed my hair anyways. I think I'm fine, just gave me a fright!
