How can I sleep with this intense bug phobia?

I have a phobia of bugs. Like, I see one and my whole day is ruined. Anyway, I just saw a roach in my kitchen, (i started crying and screaming of course) and it got away without me killing it. (because i was too afraid to go near it) Now I have to go to bed, and I have to wake up early tomorrow. Problem: I cannot go to bed knowing there is a nasty BUG (probably lots of them) in my house!!! I don't want to resort to pulling an all nighter, so i'd like suggestions on how to get over this phobia so i can SLEEP! ahhhhh thanks!

Update:

eh, no on the meds. i'm not like depressed or crazy. i just wanna go to bed!

Update 2:

samantha: maybe YOU'RE just a bug.

everyone: i'm going to bed now. wish me luck.

    Go to a doctor and ask for meds for anxiety. I would recommend Zoloft or something like it. I take that because I have a phobia of being alone in the house at night. You need something to calm your mind enough that you can sleep. Next I would seek therapy for your phobia. A therapist could possibly be able to help you get over your bug phobia. Hope this helps! ^^

    Well, for tonight you should try to relax, somewhere where you are pretty sure there aren't any bugs, and try to get some sleep. Remember, most bugs (especially those that get into houses) can't actually do anything at all to harm you, they are just weird. Although from their point of view they probably think we are weird. You should consider visiting your doctor or maybe a therapist or something to see about helping you get over this phobia.

    ooohh, PPPllleeeasee, don't do that you are just hurting yourself in your mind, there are more tragic things and more bad things to worry then a roach, yes, they're nasty but there are people that eats bugs and nothing happens to them, don't worry about them or you'll be a slave of those fears always, and you don't want that. go to sleep now! good night!
