We seem to have the same problem with red and black beetles.  The
exterminator came and said they were Box Elder Bugs, whatever they
are, and said not to worry.  He says that if you get rid of your
box elder bush, you'll get rid of the bugs.  We don't know which bush
is the box elder bush, so we still have the bush, and still have the
bugs.  If anybody else can help, I'd like to hear some suggestions too.

P.S.  I just started dealing with this exterminator, and I'm not
      sure how much I trust him.  Please someone tell me if I
      really do have to worry about these suckers.  They're all
      over the place.
